i have 1975 bmw 2002 model car....it starts just fine the problem is that a few minutes into the run when shifting to reverse or drive from park the car will turn off completely...I figure if it was the battery it will not start but it starts just fine....as long as i am giving it gas it will not stall. I changed the fuel filter but keeps doing the same.
