Re: [DML] DeLorean died and will not restart



Martin,

Yesterday I met a DeLorean Owner (before my DMC broke
down) about a mile from wherre my car broke down.  His
car yesterday exhibited the same symptoms as mine as
he couldn't get it started no matter how much he
cranked the cold engine.  Talk about coincidence...
about fuel pumps jamming, what causes it Debris in the
tank??   I just had my tank cleaned by Don at DeLorean
in CA a year ago and all hoses and the fuel pump were
replacced with bbrand new parts

-Chris & 6453

p.s. I'll check the car first thing tomorrow
