[QUOTE="bimmerman, post: 478, member: 126"] Hey Guys,Was driving along in traffic jam today and the weather was especially hot but my trusty E34 never did sweat it one bit. Temperature guage was dead centre. Then suddenly I lost one cylinder and the engine began to shudder. But still had to drive quite a bit in the jam before I could bring her home.Later in the evening I checked all my spark plugs and they were all a healthy brown. Sanded them a little with fine grain sandpaper and put them back but still same problem. Also I notice a sweet smelling gas in the air when the engine was running. Can't tell if it's unspent petrol though. So what could it be guys? Lost a coil? Clogged an injector? Fuel filter dirty? My engine is a M50TU.HELP!!! CNY around the corner and no car to use! [/QUOTE]
