I'll be driving down the road just buzzing along and bopping to the music when all of a sudden i loose power. i mean it just dies! then i have to depress the clutch, pump the accelorater to build up rpm while easing out the clutch and hope for enough power to get where i wanna go. whats the most common cause of this in the e30? i'm thinking my distributor is going bad but that doesn't seem to jive with me pumping the gas.

Sounds like a fuel delivery issue. I agree you probably need a new fuel filter.
1987 E30 cabrio | Bumper swap | H&R Sport | Koni Yellow | Eibach Sways | BavAuto strut bar | Cardinal seats
MTech2 wheel | Husco Armrest | Smoked Hella Smileys | 5k HID | Stromung | RS003 | Shadowline | Amber Fogs | Too much else to list

It's not how you handle the good times, but the faith you keep in the bad that defines you.
