[DML] The Prodigal DeLorean driver

["John Rydholm" <ebondefender@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all, haven't posted in a while. I've been having my life run amok 
in so many words by work, college etc. I recently had my DMC worked 
on with a moderate/major tune up. They completely rebuilt my rack and 
pinion, pounded out those two frozen spark plugs, put new weather 
seals on the gullwings, replaced some mega-shorted wiring in the 
console (which screwed up my lights and melted some of the harness!), 
as well as standard tune up stuff. The irony? The Murphy's Law? I 
drove it all of 40 miles back home from near Detroit, parked it in my 
driveway, and the next morning found my gas pedal stuck completely to 
the floor! Strangely enough, the engine does not rev high when idling 
so I don't believe it's the throttle linkage. But for some reason the 
spring on my accel. pedal isn't doing it's job. It's like someone put 
super glue under my footpedal at night. Oh yeah, and now my battery 
died! Gosh I tell ya, winter sucks. :P Well I'll get her working 
sooner or later; I hope you're all having better luck than I. I'm 
still living the dream, just getting poorer because of it. But it's 
worth it. I'm starting to feel like Captain Kirk: all I have is my 
car. And work. And maybe my dog. So how is everyone else? lol
