Engine Flutter

[JaeckelBMW]

Hopefully someone can answer this question. I currently am driving an 89 325IS. Currently whenever I get on the gas really hard the engine flutters and spits. Like it isn't getting enough gas. This usually only happens when it hasn't been driven for like 8 hours or in the mornings. I was thinking it was water in the tank so I put some Heet in it and that didn't work as it is still having this issues. I have changed the plugs and am getting new wires. Should I get a new distributor and what not? Would that be a waste of money because there is a larger picture? I am sure I dont need a rebuild because I only have 80K on this engine. So any and all that know what they are talking about are more then welcome to advise. Thanks.

Check your air filter and test your fuel pressure first.

I think your on the right lines most of the time load related misfires and flat spots are HT related try the leads next and if they don’t cured try a cap and arm
