1999 BMW My car turns over, but won't stay running once you take your foot off the gas petal. And the check eng. light came on. Was running fine before this.

sir

i change the fuel pump and give it a tune up and set my idle a little higher adjusted my timing and it ll run fine. u can try adjusting the timing by ear but most shops can do it with a light in less time and not much hassle for the timing and u should also try changing your igntion coil the external ones are the way to go FYI


thank u sir

In late-model cars, a blinking light usually indicates an engine misfire so severe that unburned fuel is being dumped into the exhaust system, where it can quickly damage the catalytic converter, requiring an expensive repair. If that happens, you should reduce power and have the car looked at as soon as possible. If the light is steady, the problem is not an emergency, but you should schedule an appointment with a mech as soon as possible hello sir
