BMW e30 1989 Convertible Automatic
I've been searching all over the internet and I'm just running around in circles. Let me first tell you what was done to the car. I've pretty much rebuilt this whole thing.
1. Head / exhaust / intake gaskets replacement / cam seal / crank seal / Timing belt / Water Pump / Head job / Valve Adjustment
2. Spark plugs & wires
3. Distributor cap & rotor
4. Idle Control Valve
5. Crank Position Sensor, Coolant Temp Sensor, O2 Sensor
6. Main Relay, Fuel Pump Relay
7. Throttle position sensor, on the dot with ohm and correct calibration reading
8. Changed fuel regulator
9. Changed fuel filter
10. Test fuel pump, cleaned strainer
11. Test MAF
12. Changed and swapped ICV, test resistance on ICV *GOOD* (3 plug)
13. Checked alternator GOOD
14. Recharged car battery, test battery is GOOD, battery reading almost
14V when running, 12.6 when still.
15. Emptied gas tank, with new gas.
My problem started when the car would die at a stop light. I would have to press the accelerator to keep the RPM up.
At this point car only idles for about 5 minutes when cold start,
After it is warm, it will not hold the idle and RPMs will begin to fall. It goes up and down on it's own to try and stay alive, but it eventually dies.
I could hold on the gas, but if I let go it will immediately die when warm.
Really thirsty to get this fix, any help will be great. Getting a 1222 stomp code.
Thank you.
