My 1990 525i requries 7 seconds on the starter to get going and then stalls once or twice after starting. Sometimes I notice a fuel smell after it stalls on startup. Someone said their e34 did this and it was the fuel hose was old and worn or leaking.

Anyone else had this problem or a similar problem? All the usual suspects that can be fixed by a Bozo (me) have been tried to no avail (plugs air filter, fuel filter)
