I just drove 71 miles w/o problem. Parked for 1 hr. then started OK then ( '95 BMW 318i) just stop running maybe 1-2 mins after starting. Cranks/tries to start but doesn't. Have 1/2 tank gas. New starter 6 months ago. Can't push start it either. What you think fuel filter or fuel pump. Got stuck 70 miles from home & it took just about every cent I had to rent a car to get home.

Too many choice.
3 main areas are fuel, spark, air.
Try a shot of ether, if it fires at all, it is a fuel problem.
Then we can get into more detail.

Hi parked my 318i was running OK when the back 3-4 hours later and not want to start can anyone help please or have a list to go through please thank you

If ambient temperature was high it could be just a vapor lock. I'd try opening the fuel filler cap and then replacing. Otherwise would need some more information such as the year, transmission type, previous most recent issues with starting

Tappets are constantly loud when driving 1993 BMW 318i

How is the oil level in the engine? Have you actually checked that? Also, what kind of oil (and what weight) are you running in the engine, and how many miles are on the car? You may be running oil that is too thin for the amount of wear on the engine parts! oil leaks cause low oil levels!

Bmw 325i 2003 stall

Sounds like you have a small bit of dirt or grit in the fuel system when accelerating it is drawn with enough force to cut off the fuel supply then is released when engine at Idle.
1 run liquid fuel line/injector cleaner in 1 tank
2 check fuel lines for debris
3 change fuel filters
4 have fuel tank flushed
here is trouble shooting order less expense to greater.
