Engine Performance problem
1985 BMW 318 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive 184000 miles

WHEN THE CAR IS AT AN IDOL IT IS FINE AND DOESN'T MISS AT ALL AND WHEN I PUSH THE PEDDLE PAST HALF WAY ACCELERATING FIRMLY IT IS FINE, BUT IN THE PEDDLE RANGE BETWEEN IDOL AND OVER HALF WAY THE CAR CUTS OUT HARD AND SURGES UP AND DOWN DRASTICALLY MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE IT JERKS YOU BACK AND FORTH AS YOU TRY TO DRIVE.

Possibly a worn air flow meter or it could be an engine wiring harness issue. The harness shorts out and causes all sorts of problems.
