    Switching off after Rev

    On my first startup of my s50b32, the car idles fine, smooth, only problem im having is when i blip the throttle or rev it a bit, the motor drops the idle and switches off.
    Any ideas on what it could be?
    Does the DME need some time to set ?

      because my car is the old chrome bumper model the wiring was a bit different so someone made a diagram up for me. Was checking again yesterday, the car idles and stays on if rev is normal, its when a light throttle is applied is when it sort of floods the engine and switches off...

        O2 backfeeding HFM.

        use a relay to isolate pins 13-13 from each other.

            You and I are having the same problem. Unplug your o2 and it will run in open loop.

              I wonder if there is a ground hooked up as a postitive in harness--possibility at starter. Need to reference ETM - ground distribution chart.

                    if he has crome bumpers, then it's likely that he has an early model e30 83-86 that has the square connector for the wiring harness, if that's the case then his body side connector doesn't have the 13 pin and instead it would have to do something like this...
