New Owner Questions

[scott-c-arnold@xxxx]

I just recently purchased my first DeLorean, #6683. I have done 
plenty of automotive work in the past, but I still have alot to learn 
about DeLoreans. As a new owner, I have a few hopefully simple 
questions to ask:

1) How do you remove the dome light?
2) What is the best way to find out information on the Zilla products 
I keep reading about?
3) What should my oil pressure read? Right now mine is reading just 
over 80, which I am betting is not normal.
4) In order to open the lower engine cover, you have to pull and hold 
the release lever in the car while someone else (or though creative 
use of a long stick) lifts the cover. If you just pull and release 
the lever, the cover relatches. Is this a stock irritation, or is it 
not working correctly?
5) How is the dash illumination supposed to work? Here is what mine 
does: With the ignition on, the temp and fan controls are always 
illuminated. When I turn on the parking lights, the temp and fan 
controls dim, and the headlight and hazard light buttons illuminate, 
as does the instrument cluster. Only the instrument cluster lighting 
is affected by the illumination brightness knob. Is some of this not 
working correctly? How should it work?
6) My car runs well enought, but it has an acceleration hesitation 
that is severe when the engine is cold, and mild when the engine is 
warm. By hesitation, I mean opening the throttle tends to choke and 
kill the engine, rather than accelerating it. Perhaps it just needs 
some adjustment or a tune-up? Do DeLorean owners, either with or 
without help from various DeLorean service centers, ever get together 
and have tune-up parties?

Thanks for your help!
