Any Ideas???

[94325is]

This is the second time I experienced this.... I'll be driving my 94325is when \iuddenly it will lose power and have a period of hesitation... it lasts for 5 minutes or less, then it seems fine. happened about a month ago for the first time, then again today... I did stall the engine just before it happened today. I was pulling out of a parking space slowly and didn't give it enough gas. started it back up and had the problem. I do not remember if I stalled it the last time it happened, but it was the day I picked it up after having a new clutch installed, and it did happen right after I stopped, and being a new clutch, I may have stalled it then too, but I cannot say for sure. any idea what may be happening, or if the stalling is playing a part in all this... there are no indicators lighting up on the dash... any help appreciated...

does this only happen when u are going slow??? or does happen when u are driving fast

Either... if I try to accelerate it'll sputter and lose power... driving slow seems to be better, that is, less noticable, but I still feel it lose power...

dude, first thing, check ur main ground wire, i had this problem and it took me months to figure it out...my main ground wasnt hooked up and my injectors were losing power when they voltage became too high.....

I'll check it over the weekend... thanks

I would say from personal experiences those are early signs of fuel system malfunctioning (very common in 1994 E36)..but i have an auto car...manuals are alittle different

could it also be clutch related, loose something?

i dont think so, seems like ur losing power to the injectors, does ur check engine light come on? could be bad injectors,did u check the ground? sounds very identical to waht happened to me....
