[DML] Re: How long have you been stuck in a traffic jam?

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would worry too if the following items have not been changed and are
still origional:
Water pump
Header bottle
Radiator
ALL of the hoses and seals
Belts
Fan Fail Relay
Cooling fan circuit breaker

The cooling system IMHO is one of the weakest links on a Delorean. To
make it as reliable as possible you MUST maintain it. The next weakest
link is the electrical system and you need that to run the fans!!!!!
Especially if you get stuck in traffic and are not moving.
