90' 745T w. 5spd. Stalls after accelerating? 700 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be JohnR on  Mon Nov 20 01:06 CST 2000 [RELATED]

I recently purchased a 1990 740 Turbo Wagon with 5spd. The car has 90K miles. When accelerating if I stop accelerating (release gas pedal) and push in the clutch the idle drops to the point where the car stalls. It starts right up when I bump start the car if its still rolling or if I turn the ignition to start it. I don't have a problem if I'm decelerating and then push in the clutch.

I've changed plugs, cap, rotor, and fuel pressure regulator. No change to the idle condition. I've checked the idle switch and I hear the "CLICK" when I push the throttle off its stop.

Any advice or suggestions. Thanks
