1989 740 16 Valve Engine stalls Unexpectedly

Post by elvee55 »

Hi
help needed , I have been noticing my 740 has been stalling randomly when stationary and for the first time when cornering today ( left turn) it has a full tank of fuel, clean air filter, reasonably new spark plugs, MAF sensor cleaned 6 months ago. The stalling is becoming more frequent and starting to feel dangerous
any advice welcome
Cheers

Thanks 93Regina
Replaced fuel relay as suggested and it seems to have fixed it.
Many thanks
