Default start-up problem

Hi,

This is the first time I'm posting a message to the forum, I hope I'm posting under the correct subject.

I have a startup problem with my manual 95 318ti. It starts running when I turn the key, but stops in 2-3 seconds. It seems that it doesnt get gas after startup. I tried to keep the rev up approximately at 1500 by pushing the gas pedal, but engine check light will not go off. However, if I hit to 3000-3500 revs, engine check light goes off. The car stopped at a mall, so I tried to drive back home by pressing on the gas(otherwise it stops at idling) after a mile or so and the car started to work properly(wouldn't stop at idling if I lift my foot off the gas pedal). I checked the connections, fuse for the fuel pump, there are no loose connections, fuse seems okay.

Has anyone any idea what could be the reason?
