My e34 just broke down, first time in my life a car has done so to me!
While I was driving around, engine half warmed up, felt like one cylinder was missing, ok it does this sometimes and it clears up - not this time though. As engine is almost fully warmed up (I am not sure if this is related, just saying) there is almost no power when pressing the gas pedal, can barely rev in neutral, but it is still driving, just slowly.
Check engine light comes on at this point (will check for codes when I get back from work).
I get through an intersection and it will barely move, engine dies in neutral.
I can sorta start it back up a few times in a row (starter cranking fine), but it idles very poorly and then dies - gas pedal has almost no affect on engine speed.
I let it sit for 10 min or so and try and start it, little better, can sorta rev it up to 1500-2000 rpm, but it dies shortly.
Thinking either spark or/fuel delivery problem??
I am hoping NOT coolant in cylinders, coolant level looks same as always at first glance.
What are some first thoughts before I get stomp codes?
