New Goodyear Tires On Delorean

Went over to Tire Kingdom today and put the tires on the Delorean. The ride is so much smoother with the new tires. Before the entire car use to shake like crazy.
Heres some pictures:

New Tires For Delorean

I placed the order for new tires at tirerack.com
 I really wanted to try to find Goodyear Eagle GT-II for front and rear with white lettering but couldn’t find the front.
What i settled for was:
Goodyear GT-HR 195/60/14
Goodyear Eagle GT-II 235/60/15
I will try to paint the GT-HR lettering white. If it looks stupid I will just leave […]

Dead Battery In Delorean

Just came back from a week long labor day trip and it seems like something drained the battery. I’m going to try to get it recharged and hopefully that fixes the problem.

Delorean Overheating Update

After filling the car with more coolant the overheating problem was fixed. I’m still going to get a fan fail fix for the Delorean to prevent this terrible event from every happening again.

Delorean Overheating and Coolant Hose Burst

I was driving on I-95 this morning and I start to hear a strange noise. I look at the engine temp and it’s in the middle of the orange so I get worried and pull off at the next exit. I pull into a 7-11 and open my gull-wing door and see that hot steam […]

Replaced Fuses In Delorean

I received my package from SpecialTAuto which included oil filters, spark plugs, wires, fuses, relays, air filter, brake pads, bleed screws and the oil screw. I replaced all the fuses in the Delorean so far and about to replace the relays once i confirm where each one them goes.
I tested the windshield wipers and they now work with the […]

Delorean Has A Flat Tire

The rear passenger tire is flat. I had to put air in it twice because it was a little low and haven’t got around to checking to see if it needed to be plugged or replaced.
I’ll probably get a can of fix-a-flat and take it to the gas station to put air and get the […]

Windshield Washer Problem

I purchased some Mr. Clean windshield washer fluid for the Delorean because the windshield washer reservoir was practically empty.
It’s most likely just a fuse that needs to be replaced. Cleaning the contacts of the fuse might solve the problem. But since I’m replacing them all anyways and not driving the car, I’ll just wait for […]

Delorean Shakes On Highway

While driving the Delorean to work the other day is when I noticed how bad the car shakes when it goes above 55mph. An alignment and balancing the tires should hopefully fix the shake. If not then I might need to also replace my mounts.

Delorean Tire Pressure

My pal Roman noticed that my right rear tire was very low. I was unsure how much pressure should be in the tires. After checking DMCTalk.com I found out that in the glovebox it says 23 front and 30 rear.
 I didn’t like the idea of the front tires only having 23 psi so I put […]

A/C Problems In Delorean

The air conditioner not blowing cold air was really bad today. I think today being a really hot day had a big part of it being almost unbearable. But I need to find a place to get it fixed.
