Hi all,
My 91 318i died while I was out driving the other day. A few days before, it did the same thing: I would really get on the gas in 2nd, and it would just stall out. I restarted the car after that, however, and drove home with no problem.
Here's what I've checked so far: it's not a clogged fuel filter, the fuel pump doesn't run when I crank the car over, and I've checked all the fuses that might have been at fault. I pulled the fuel pump relay and opened it up; however, there's no damage(ie burns, broken wires). Even though there's no visible damage to the relay, I think it's the culprit. Unfortunately, I can't get my hands on another fuel pump relay till sunday.
Is there anything else I can check? Any ideas? Any help is GREATLY appreciated!
