 Stalling at Speed
Great technical posts everywhere, but maybe none to address my problem. My 1998 318ti (M44) stalled yesterday on the interstate while under steady throttle and 60 mph. The car rolled to a stop and wouldn't start. Engine temperature according to the gauge was normal. OBD-II indicated a secondary air fault and an evaporative control system problem (these faults had been there for a couple of hundred miles already). After about 20 minutes, the car would start (with very rough idle), but stalled again when any throttle was applied. After the $125 tow (and about another hour), the car started up normally, and I could use the throttle enough to park the car properly. I wasn't going to chance anything more, by warming up the engine or anything else close to normal operation. I suspect the fuel pressure regulator and/or the fuel control valve is the problem. Any insights out there?
