Maybe go for a color close to the fascia ...

Yeah ... When I block leak... Engine increases revs a little... I need a new Plug for it.. .. And then I'm guessing decrease revs at adjuster..

Thanks everyone for support... My Delorean enthusiasm has returned... When it is back on the road it will look the best it ever has!.. Having Chris N re-brush and wheels painted dark grey..

Probably a mix of the idle screw and the fuel/air mixture. Get it on an exhaust tester, standard MOT one is fine, and set mixture and then if revs still high then adjust idle speed, if that sods up the emissions then adjust mixture again. Eventually you'll get sweet spot with nice idle and correct emisions. Nick T will probably chime in with what the emissions should be on a stock car with no cat. Also make sure when at idle the microswitch is being closed properly.

Micro switch switches on shut down fine... Maybe Nick T can give her a tune up when she's on the road :)
