Bob DeBone Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 !981-83 DeLoreans qualify as over 25 year old autos. I am currently rebuilding 2 of them and would love to have discussion about this task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob DeBone Posted January 27, 2017 Author Share Posted January 27, 2017 My current problems trying to identify the thickness of the rotor. One of the brake technicians says there is usually a minimum number stamped on the rotor. after cleaning off the rust, I do not see this number and the service manual does not specify that number. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plymouthcranbrook Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 (edited) Another one that you try to help and they either never come back or are not able to say thanks. Sigh...

Bob DeBone Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 I am not one to use the web site very often but a reply to my question from Plymouth cranbrrok was able to get me into a very knowledgeable site called dmctalk.org. WOW does that help me with various situations, Thanks Plymouth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the rant, I have gone out of my way several times at various sites and then often the person never returns, either having found out what they wanted elsewhere or ? Please accept my apologies.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob DeBone Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 OK Now I have the doors off and am trying to test the interior components. The service manual does not tell me what the plug wires go to. Of course, I can trace each one but I would like to apply power to a wire at the door to chassis plug connector. Any hints of where this might be specified? I left a message on the dmctalk website but got no immediate response. Mahalo, Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
