    I would love to see more work being done on the DeLorean. Perhaps the owner will bring it back next year.

    The front forks probably need reconditioning too, since it has a couple of rubber seals in them.

    I've also found out that getting to the component you what to fix takes longer doing the repair. Great work Mike.

    Max bmw or Bob’s BMW Rocky Mountain ATVMC or Partzilla for other brands and microfiche and just remember a Beemer is a motorcycle and a Bimmer is a car 👍

    Do you need a BMW specific battery for that? MY brother had one and tried to replace it with a aftermarket one and had all kinds of electrical gremlins.

    You are going to need to look at the carb and its rubber hoses. Common failure point.

    Regarding those Clymer manuals, are you aware of Floyd Clymer, once the youngest new car dealer in America and a key figure in antique automobile and motorcycle history? Look him up! :>)
