91 740 Turbo Engine Idle/Air Temperature Sensor
Hello, every one.
I have a 1991 740 Turbo with about 250K miles. It seems to start OK, but once the engine warms up to operating temperature, and I have to stop at a traffic light, the engine idle "hunts", and upon pressing the accelerator to go, the engine is underpowered and falters. If I accelerate very gradually, the engine seems to gain power and functions almost normally. I have replaced the oxygen sensor, cleaned the MAF sensor, the throttle body and plate, and the IAC valve, and replaced the radiator thermal switch. Is the ECT sensor the cause? Also, where is the Air Temperature Sensor on this car, and is there a Manifold Air Pressure sensor on the 740 Turbo models? Thanks in advance.
