Re: [DML] Re: startup video

[R Holden <royceholden@xxxxxxxxx>]

Since this is such a common thing, I have a question:

Is there a Delorean website dedicated to a symptom:fix
scenario?
I've found some good sites to help with radio wiring,
door stuff, etc.  but it seems like a wikipedia
solution to this would be fabulous.

I'd even help with a google: knol site as a beta
tester for google.com.

Anyway, if this already exists, please post the link
or links.

Regards, Royce H.
