hey guys lately my 1986 bmw 325es with a I motor would have a hard time turning over in the mornings and idle very rough then shut off or if it doesn't shut off at first start. It'll turn off while driving and just leave me with my lights on, on the right side. Usually when it turns off while driving ill just key off and then key on and open the throttle and keep driving. I've noticed that the revs go down as i get to a slower speed.
Ive noticed that some days it'll drive fine without turning off and some days it'll turn off like 2 times and not do it again. there have been times were i would downshift and it won't turn on or sometimes ill turn the key to the on position and the starter will grind.
At times when I'm at idle I can feel that it wants to die I give it gas and it doesn't respond and just dies.
few things I've done was:
- i swapped my afm for anther good working one. (made no difference)
-adjusted the valves. (it was time for it)
-bought a new bosch 3.0 bar fuel pressure regulator. (just cause my old one was from the junkyard, i didn't know its condition)
-swapped icv. (the idle doesn't surge like it used when i would come to a stop)
-cps is within spec and i cleaned the portion of the magnet.
-replaced the outer pump in march of this year and the fuel filter.
-the 3 relays that are on the driver side, I've replaced them like 2 year ago.
i was also wondering if this pressure is good for a i motor i have the dual pumps.

I have a exhaust leak on the stock flex pipe, will that cause it to die?
