[DMCForum] Delorean mysteriously died

[Erik Geerdink <dmcerik@xxxxxxxxx>]

On my way to work yesterday i came to a stop light and my Delorean must have wanted to do a reinactment of the BTTF movie.  She just died.  But she didn't have any power whats so ever.  nothing.  No clicks, no crank.  Nothing.  I was able to push her into a parking lot close by (still 200 yards away).  I had this happen once before a few years ago.  What I did then was reseated all the connection in the back passenger side of the engine.  So I tried this again to see if it would help.  It did.
Interested once I got home I tried to recreate the situation but no luck.  Anyone have any ideas why my car died and then came back to life.  No issues since then.  I've put on 100 miles since yesterday.

Hey all,

Today was the first day I drove the D in heavy rain at night, as Katrina has started to hit us in 
the north east. The car had its windows fogged before I even got started driving, so bad that I 
had to take off a sock and wipe down the percipitation on the inside. I had the wipers on 
high, and the vent on defrost on blower 3, but the window was still fogged from what 
appeared to be the outside (or in the middle?) as well as on the inside. The same was true for 
the door glass and toll booth windows also. 

Is there something else I should have done to clear this up, as it was very hard on visibility, 
and created an awful glare with oncoming traffic? Is there some sort of product I can use to 
clean up a windshield that has been sitting stored for several years? I was planning on putting 
rain-x on the windshield and door glass to help the excess water run off, but that would not 
solve the inside problem. Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks!
