    Possible misfire/sputtering

    My 1985 325E is giving me a hard time lately. Ran perfect until I took it to the car wash the other day then started my misfire or sputter at idle and when giving it throttle. If you are very light on throttle it goes up in RPM but any more than a touch it sputters like crazy and will not accelerate. I am also now having a problem that when flooring gas pedal (and only when flooring) after a few seconds the car will just stop responding to throttle and give up then come back as soon as i let up and give it any less than full throttle.

    Smoke tested found no vacuum leaks. Injectors cleaned and flow tested. Fuel pressure is good. Timing is in spec. Valves adjusted.

    New parts - Alternator, coolant sensors, plugs, wires, ignition coil, idle control module, idle control valve, DME, distributor rotor and cap, transfer pump, main fuel pump, valve cover gasket.

    Need help on where to go from here.
