    Default Still sputter sputin 1991 e32 735i with eml throttle body... strange idle

    Still having problems with this 1991 e32 735i. It is idling up and down.
    I have tested:
    replaced O2 sensor
    Full charge on battery
    replaced Spark plugs
    replaced rotor and rotor cap
    refurbished eml throttle body No help
    eml replaced.
    Smoked intake no leaks
    refurbished afm tested
    replaced afm
    fuel pressure is fine
    Clamp off evap system and test evap valve

    March 2017 its been 5 months now
    found a bad engine grounding strap and replace it
    testing wiring between afm and DME no problems
    replaced DME

    Still having the engine idling problem it starts up but continually ramps up and down between 1000 and 2000 rpms. Once you shift the car into drive and the engine has a load on it the ramping will stop.

    anyone ever heard of this problem being caused by crankshaft position sensor. Or perhaps a bad ground?

    I have attached a link to the video.
