just take out the delorean for this summer so now its my daily
driver, but the engine need a little tune-up because since i
replaced some parts and clean up the engine bay now the engine
misfire during driving, just like it was run out of fuel for a
second it does it warm or cold and the acceleration is sluggish all
time...so what are the parts i replaced this winter : distributor
rotor/cap, spark plugs, wires, fuel accumulator, all hose clamps,
belts, fuel filter, oil filter and oil
heres the test i have made : i checked the timing (13 degree without
vacuum), i also adjusted the screw for throttle plates (now the idle
is sitting at 750rpm and the microswitch is pressed when idling), i
also play with the co level screw(allen bolt) i placed it to have
the best engine sound/noise smells with 3-4 road tests, i also
checked all vacuum hoses and spray wd40 where all hoses plugs in
particular the big one under the fuel/air control unit,
symptoms i see : when i start the car : the engine rpm is about
2000rpm for 10sec and after it drop to 750 (a little higher when
cold)
my idea is : i think the engine run too rich
if someone have a hints about it please help me because a delorean
is better when the engine runs fine
thanks
yan
