Grounding Questions



Can anyone tell me where ALL the grounding connections on the 
DeLorean are? Monday my fuel pump quit on me in traffic. While I 
pushed the car to safety, I was damn near killed by a double trailer 
semi who turned the corner too fast and almost didn't stop in time to 
avoid running me over. But that's a story for a another occasion... 
My fuel pump doesn't work when connected, but my multi meter shows 
about 10 volts comming thru the wire. After running a seperate wire 
and grounding the negative wire from the fuel pump, the pump runs 
fine. For the day an a half before the pump quit, the engine was 
stalling randomly. So my guess is that this was a sign that a ground 
connection was going out.

On a side note: When I removed the access panel to the brake master 
cylinder, I found the front ground point. I disconnected all the 
wires, but my headlights, cooling fans, & everything else still 
worked. After cleaning the bolt, frame, and cleaning the connections 
my fuel pump still would not work. But boy did my headlights get 
brighter! Now when I run all accessories (lights, A/C, etc..) the 
voltmeter only goes down to 13 volts!
