    Car running funny. Help@

    When my car switched gears yesterday it started running funny. Car shakes bad. Sounds a lot deeper than it usually does. I have lost a lot of power. I can accelerate the car if I push the pedal a little. If I already have speed on me I can push the pedal all the way down and it will accelerate very slowly. If I push the pedal all the way down at a complete stand still the car gets no acceleration. Dont know what is wrong and I dont know where to start. Please help.

    I drive a 325 i E30 year is 90.

      The shaking and loss of power sounds like misfires.
      The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

              spark plug. first three will change the way the motor runs. Last three can be taken off with no affect on motor (4 5 6).

                  Spark plugs checked. Working fine. Narrowed it down to two fuel injectors that had gone bad. Replaced two fuel injectors still have the same problem.
                  Should be getting gas. Should be getting spark.
                  Two cylinders are not firing.

                  Can I get some possible problems please?
