1992 BMW won't stay turned on

I have a 1992 bmw 325ic with E-30 body. I was having problems with the idle, specially when at a stop. I replaced the airflow meter, idle control, air intake hoses, spark plugs and fuel filter. The car started well but after a while it dies and won't crank up. I took out the spark plugs, let them dry and replaced them. The car started again but died a few miles later and will not crank up. Ideas would be appreciated. Thank you!

The spark plugs shouldn't be wet, or are they wet because it won't start and they just get fuel soaked? Check the injectors.

My 1992 BMW 325 has an intermittent idling problem. When stopped or when clutch is engaged, the RPM's go from 1000 to 2500 then back to 1000, etc, up and down.
Have the idle control valve cleaned or changed.

Sometimes start up with only five celenders.
try checking your plug wires or just changing them... if you can get a test done to c which cylinder isn't firing, try changing the coils or coil pack (whichever a bmw has)
