I am one of the few people my age I know that experienced a DeLorean before Back to the Future. All came down to happenstance. Mom bought a 1984 Volvo sedan new. I was 5 when we went to the dealer to get the car and none other than a new or newish (might have been new, or lightly used) DeLorean was front and center in the showroom. I remember being fascinated with the car, they let me sit in it and play with the doors. I remember being disappointed that the horn was on the side stalk. We drove that Volvo across the US to Doug DeMuro territory in 85 and it was there that I saw Back to the Future. I can safely say that even without the film, the car left an impression on me, though the film immortalized it for sure.
I have a VW rabbit with that fuel system, my coolant temp sensor failed causing the cold start injector not to fire... Resulting in 20 second cold starts
Yes the “cold start” was simply an extra fuel injector on the intake, controlled by a non computer CTS and relay. The “drill the hole” bit I’ve always seen the hole already there for the “super top secret high altitude adjustment” that will make them run better even at sea level. Hey it fooled the Feds....
This is 100% fact. I had one and once the nostalgia from the movie wore off, quickly unloaded it. I took a small loss on it, but everything I've seen out of these cars for decades since prove that my loss would have been much greater had I kept it. It is just an absolute piece of crap of a car. Which is a shame really as the car is so unique looking.
@@d2factotum Possibly, but it is impossible to say. I tend to lean to no, because outside of its look the car is just a complete pile of crap by every definition. Even unique cars get abandoned if they are bad enough. Alas this is just pure speculation and we will never know.
@@d2factotum They are unique, but I think that would get it so far. Maybe the generation that saw it new would get some nostalgia, but the rest of us would not look at it twice.
Too bad DeLorean got busted for drugs. His next car looked like it would be much better. The DeLorean they make now fixed most of the issues the originals have and is a decent car. If you really want to go big swap an LS into one.
if it's bosch k jetronic then cold start issues start with cold start injector, it operates on on it's own loop by a thermo-time switch, the switch is located somewhere in head or coolant line, if the coolant is warm or the switch is broken it doesn't send current to the cold start injector, usually it's the switch that brakes than the injector.
@@Vicarium - true - but then it be hard starting cold or hot. He's only having start issues when cold. So still a problem with the cold-start circuit. Regardless, changing the check valve would be cheap insurance. They cheap and easy to get to (at least on my Mk1 VW Jetta).
In part one Doc says the delorean is electrical and the time circuits are nuclear. Then Marty rips a fuel line in the cave. Making the plot of the 3rd movie not make any sense but a detail they could have left out was having to convert the time machine back to gas powered after it sat for years in the mine. I tend to overlook plot discrepancies like this because obviously the movies are more about fun then an attempt at accuracy.
@@davenz000 nope, in BTTF 3 they used a Steam Loco to push it over the bridge over EASTWOOD RAVINE ...........Doc blew the fuel injection unit when he used hoooch to try and power the De after Marty ripped the fuel line doing jumps in the desert
Back in 1982 I was in a band that got signed to a record label. One time we were going to meet the label's owner for lunch - he had brought his brand-new Delorean, which had a stereo system (with an EQ, etc) that was built into the dashboard such that you had to press a switch that was hidden, and then that part of the dash would life up, flip over, and then settle itself back down - exposing the controls! When it was tucked away though you would have never ever known it was there. It was completely hidden; and this thing was huge too! It was pretty cool... I also had a chance to sit behind the wheel and start the car - they wouldn't let me take it for a test drive though (or anyone else in the group) because we were all high and drunk. Go figure!
I remember when the DeLorean's first came out and a guy who had a gas station down the road bought one. He beat that car. Anyway, as far as the mirrors falling off, I just 'glued' the mirror on my '99 LeSabre with clear silicon and it never came off. I had also 'glued a piece of flashing over a hole in the rear fender well with silicon and it lasted 7 yrs until I got rid of it due to rust. Thanks for sharing.
You know they have a 5th fuel injector that's electrically operated called a cold start injector which is operated by a heated binetallic switch called a thermotime switch. If either of those things aren't working, cold starting will be a royal PITA. Note: I know nothing about DeLoreans, but VWs, Audis and Porsche all used the same K-Jetronic (and KE-Jetronic) systems, so it should be the same.

A friend of mine owns a DeLorean. One major issue is the seals on the gull wing doors. My friend lives in Las Vegas, NV. He normally has to change the door seals every 2 years max. The dry air of the desert dries them that quickly. This is the case even if the car is stored in a garage as well. He considers this a small price to pay with owning a DeLorean.
He talks about drilling the fuel distributor. What he is talking about is drilling out the aluminum plug that hides the idle mixture screw. Once you drill this out you can use a 3 mm allen wrench to set your idle mixture on Bosch K-Jetronic.
" when we need Dodge Viper parts we can go back in time and get them" you are indeed a wizard 🧙♂️

11:05 I knew the DeLorean before the first of the "Back to the Future" movies was released but I've never owned one. In fact, I went to the cinema to watch the original movie when it was first released and I immediately identified the car.
Bosch K Jetronic was used on so many cars in the 80's. It was pretty much the main FI system. Especially in Europe. Ford Capri V6's, Renault 30, Renault 25. Alpine GTA V6 Turbo, Ford Escort RS Turbo's, Saab 900 Turbo's. I think the list is pretty much endless. The MAIN thing to check is to ensure the Air-flow plate is central in the venturi. Run a feeler gauge around the airflow plate and the gap all the way around should be even. If not you can undo the central nut and move the plate. You will then need to attach a CO% meter to the exhaust and check the idle mixture is right. 1.5% is about there. If not, you drop a small allen key down the hole he was talking about and turn it in VERY small amounts. And watch the CO%.
The Delorean engine is the same 2.8 PRV V6, as lifted straight from the Renault 30 TX of 1980. Rated for 155BHP over here back then. Although i think they put some more emissions stuff on it for the US and that took it down even more. I have a 1988 Renault Alpine GTA 2.5 V6 Turbo, its slightly tuned to 230BHP. You can drop that PRV V6 straight into the Delorean for a bit more get up and go....
Don't adjust the fuel ration screw Bob is telling you about. There's a reason it's capped off. If you still have the car, the cold start can be solved with a simple cheap O ring on the side of the Bosch Jetronic fuel distributor. It get's flatted over time and allows air to seep in causing the fuel system to de-pressurize. It's easy to access and only takes a few minutes to replace, however, the hardest part of the fix is getting the O ring back into the distributor without tearing it. Make sure you use a lot of soluble grease or lube and carefully insert it back in.
Heh! Going back in time, catching up on yours, and Wizard's, past videos. This was fun! Nicely done guys. (And Mrs Wizard, quietly behind the camera, I presume.)
The wizard will fix it. He’s a great mechanic. Some cars make things very hard for anyone to work on. Too bad the haters will jump all over wizard cause of the title.
Regular car reviews did a review of a ls swapped delorean. It was truly amazing. If I remember correctly the guy who built it has everything that he did planned out in cad so he can replicate it so I guess if hoovie wanted to it's totally possible and everything is a planned out for it
Oh, look, it's the guy who made a video on how to replace brakes on a Rolls Royce and never actually showed how to. Instead, it's basically just a video of him admiring how well built the car is and then the next frame is brakes already changed. Excellent DIY! 10/10 would watch again.
Dude looks like cross between Cat Whisperer Jackson Galaxy and Captain Ben Sisko from Star Trek DS9. Definitely a knowledgeable guy. I look forward to watching his video concerning Hoovie. BTW - I have a the same Bosch fuel system on my similar-vintage VW, and it had the same cold start issue. Definitely an issue with the cold-start injector circuit. Follow these steps: 1. Flush the fuel line from the fuel distributor to the cold start injector to ensure there's no blockage. Bosch CIS systems are not engineered to use ethanol blends and are HIGHLY sensitive to fuel contamination and deposits. I only use Shell V-Power Premium 91 octane - it has no ethanol (at least in Canada where I'm at). 2. Check that the cold-start injector is operational. It requires electrical power to open the valve (unlike the mechanical CIS injectors on the intake runners). There is a bi-metal thermostat switch mounted somewhere on the engine which routes power to the injector - make sure that the wiring is OK and that Thermoswitch is OK (switch cold - closed circuit; switch warm - open circuit). 3. Ensure that the relay that powers the thermoswitch is operational - it should have constant 12v when the car is running. That was the problem with my car - the relay was missing! Once I replaced it the car fired up as quickly as if it were warm - I could drive it cold like a modern car. It was a freakin' miracle! Hope that helps the Car Wizard diagnose the problem. I also hope he charges Hoovie double for the repair. I'm still mad about the idiotic burn-out he did with the AMG wagon.
Who’s channel am I watching?!?!? Either way.... they are 3 men that I respect in the Automotive World. Thanks Tyler (Bob & Dave) for another excellent video.
On the cold start, issue check the fuel pressures and see if it fits in the spec of the warm-up regulator. The problem in testing cold start you only have one shot to testing. You can actually adjust the regulated if needed. Also, check and replace all the injector seals. While you have the injectors out you can see if the back of the intake valves has carbon build-up. That's another problem. I'm sure the wizard will get it right.
I love the collaboration with Videobob! Subscribed to this channel a while ago because i heard him talk about this one a lot so i gave it a look and i love it!
Does the WEEEZARD ever guarantee any of his work? It seems 80% of his "repairs" seem fail rather immediately - and Hoovie continues to throw good money after bad due to Wizard's lack of results.
you talk so much garbage, i guess you make music in a metro station. if you bring a totally broken car to a mechanic and pay him to fix A, you cant blame him for B and C failing later.
That's because Hoovie rather bandaid the cars and only fix the worst things wrong... That's on him not the wizard.. and as a mechanic you don't touch ANYTHING that's not getting replaced or in the way of what your replacing ...Your one of those clueless people that goes to a stealership or blames your mechanic for your 20-30 yr old used POS for having issues.. you want no issues buy brand new with warranty..
@@BatLB You seem like a REALLY good dude - did you see the side mirrors? That was a direct wizard failed repair, along with the fuel pump and other things. Oh well, I hope you'll put a dollar in my violin case next time you come down to the station platform....
@@metromusic5725 he tried to glue them on and it was a good idea. as you heard from the expert, its a common problem only new parts could solve. I had my mirrors on my old hyundai also glued and they fell off after a while. if a glued mirror puts you off, good luck finding your mechanic.
@@BatLB He doesn't sound like a knowledgeable, experienced mechanic making the right decisions then. What about the fuel pump and other under the hood issues he mentioned that didn't work? Thats a bit more serious which you conveniently glossed over. Plus I would never be caught dead in an old Hyundai.

You will then need to attach a CO% meter to the exhaust and check the idle mixture is right. 1.5% is about there. If not, you drop a small allen key down the hole he was talking about and turn it in VERY small amounts. And watch the CO%.
The Delorean engine is the same 2.8 PRV V6, as lifted straight from the Renault 30 TX of 1980. Rated for 155BHP over here back then. Although i think they put some more emissions stuff on it for the US and that took it down even more.
I have a 1988 Renault Alpine GTA 2.5 V6 Turbo, its slightly tuned to 230BHP. You can drop that PRV V6 straight into the Delorean for a bit more get up and go....
11:50 "my advice is don't buy a delorean" probably the best advice I've heard about a delorean. 😂
Eli Spencer Absolutely. They’re a good looking heap of junk.
@@jgh548 If you buy a "cheap delorean" you will eventually spend more than it's value...
The acting is so viscerally satisfying. I appreciate it.
You got me. I thought that car was your delorian thinking that you guys worked on it 24/7 🙈
I love the double pants pull... suspendors and a belt... just classic
Please don’t do that to your car. Keep it stock it’s beautiful.
VideoBob on Hoovie’s, now that’s a crossover I never expected...!
Don't know if you know it but you can get your flux capacitor at O'Reilly's put it into the computer it'll come up
I never mess with really soft spoken guys with meat cleaver forearms, that wrench shit all day..
I'm bringing my 1996 town car for the same setup.🤣
Don't adjust the fuel ration screw Bob is telling you about. There's a reason it's capped off. If you still have the car, the cold start can be solved with a simple cheap O ring on the side of the Bosch Jetronic fuel distributor. It get's flatted over time and allows air to seep in causing the fuel system to de-pressurize. It's easy to access and only takes a few minutes to replace, however, the hardest part of the fix is getting the O ring back into the distributor without tearing it. Make sure you use a lot of soluble grease or lube and carefully insert it back in.
All your Delorean needs is a LS 6 speed manual swap... Minus Flux Capacitor
New Escalade $100,000 DMC time machine $100,000. Hoovies reaction priceless.
Hoovie vs Wizard. Wizard with his forearms the size of Hoovies neck XD
Heh! Going back in time, catching up on yours, and Wizard's, past videos. This was fun! Nicely done guys. (And Mrs Wizard, quietly behind the camera, I presume.)
The wizard will fix it. He’s a great mechanic. Some cars make things very hard for anyone to work on. Too bad the haters will jump all over wizard cause of the title.
I was summoning up my linguistic anti-skills to sucker-punch El Wizardo in a text format when utterly sidetracked by Facts of Life sentimentality.
Fuel pressure accumulator is the cold start issue your having. Typical K Jet issue, same thing happened on my 450SL. Swap that out and your good.
*Next video: "I'm LS swapping my broken De Lorean!"*
that would be truly awesome
Regular car reviews did a review of a ls swapped delorean. It was truly amazing. If I remember correctly the guy who built it has everything that he did planned out in cad so he can replicate it so I guess if hoovie wanted to it's totally possible and everything is a planned out for it
its so awesome how good of friends you and the car wizard are.
Wizard is a great mechanic, even Jay Leno with one of the most competent team of staff. Still has to look for specialist from time to time.
Oh, look, it's the guy who made a video on how to replace brakes on a Rolls Royce and never actually showed how to. Instead, it's basically just a video of him admiring how well built the car is and then the next frame is brakes already changed. Excellent DIY! 10/10 would watch again.
come on, we all know the flux-capacitor is tough to diagnose
Dude looks like cross between Cat Whisperer Jackson Galaxy and Captain Ben Sisko from Star Trek DS9. Definitely a knowledgeable guy. I look forward to watching his video concerning Hoovie.
BTW - I have a the same Bosch fuel system on my similar-vintage VW, and it had the same cold start issue. Definitely an issue with the cold-start injector circuit. Follow these steps:
1. Flush the fuel line from the fuel distributor to the cold start injector to ensure there's no blockage. Bosch CIS systems are not engineered to use ethanol blends and are HIGHLY sensitive to fuel contamination and deposits. I only use Shell V-Power Premium 91 octane - it has no ethanol (at least in Canada where I'm at).
2. Check that the cold-start injector is operational. It requires electrical power to open the valve (unlike the mechanical CIS injectors on the intake runners). There is a bi-metal thermostat switch mounted somewhere on the engine which routes power to the injector - make sure that the wiring is OK and that Thermoswitch is OK (switch cold - closed circuit; switch warm - open circuit).
3. Ensure that the relay that powers the thermoswitch is operational - it should have constant 12v when the car is running. That was the problem with my car - the relay was missing! Once I replaced it the car fired up as quickly as if it were warm - I could drive it cold like a modern car. It was a freakin' miracle!
Hope that helps the Car Wizard diagnose the problem. I also hope he charges Hoovie double for the repair. I'm still mad about the idiotic burn-out he did with the AMG wagon.
He is The Wizard, not God. Stop asking for miracles.
This is them joking.. I hope you know that

Who’s channel am I watching?!?!? Either way.... they are 3 men that I respect in the Automotive World. Thanks Tyler (Bob & Dave) for another excellent video.
Lol I was not expecting this 👍
Three of my favorite content creators!!
🤔 Anyone else catch Hoovie flipping off Bob for the Ferrari fire comment🤣
love the collaboration between youtubers.....enjoyed the video 👍💯
I would not drive it a lot. Only from time to time.
On the cold start, issue check the fuel pressures and see if it fits in the spec of the warm-up regulator. The problem in testing cold start you only have one shot to testing. You can actually adjust the regulated if needed. Also, check and replace all the injector seals. While you have the injectors out you can see if the back of the intake valves has carbon build-up. That's another problem. I'm sure the wizard will get it right.
he should turn it into a time machine, go back in time and not buy the delorean
@D.O.A. Ahh, the classic time travel paradox!
@D.O.A. That's heavy!
Go back in time and Go Buy as many 1960's Ferrari GTO's....and become filthy rich...all 15 if possible
I would recommend urethane adhesive for side mirrors they use it for automotive glass replacement your mirror will never come off
bruh the audio + you know that not every bargain is good
Maybe just put a switch and wire a nos button. To the cold start injector at least it wont blow up initially
Oh my rrrrrrr ma geeeeer! #Off2SeeTheWizard
I love the collaboration with Videobob! Subscribed to this channel a while ago because i heard him talk about this one a lot so i gave it a look and i love it!
Are you just now learning that "Car Wizard" is a hack flat rate mechanic?
5:35 amazing camera work right there. That shot competes with the best directors
Does the WEEEZARD ever guarantee any of his work? It seems 80% of his "repairs" seem fail rather immediately - and Hoovie continues to throw good money after bad due to Wizard's lack of results.
you talk so much garbage, i guess you make music in a metro station.
if you bring a totally broken car to a mechanic and pay him to fix A, you cant blame him for B and C failing later.
That's because Hoovie rather bandaid the cars and only fix the worst things wrong... That's on him not the wizard.. and as a mechanic you don't touch ANYTHING that's not getting replaced or in the way of what your replacing ...Your one of those clueless people that goes to a stealership or blames your mechanic for your 20-30 yr old used POS for having issues.. you want no issues buy brand new with warranty..
@@BatLB You seem like a REALLY good dude - did you see the side mirrors? That was a direct wizard failed repair, along with the fuel pump and other things. Oh well, I hope you'll put a dollar in my violin case next time you come down to the station platform....
@@metromusic5725 he tried to glue them on and it was a good idea. as you heard from the expert, its a common problem only new parts could solve.
I had my mirrors on my old hyundai also glued and they fell off after a while. if a glued mirror puts you off, good luck finding your mechanic.
@@BatLB He doesn't sound like a knowledgeable, experienced mechanic making the right decisions then. What about the fuel pump and other under the hood issues he mentioned that didn't work? Thats a bit more serious which you conveniently glossed over. Plus I would never be caught dead in an old Hyundai.
I love how these you tubers hang out together.
