Default Pushed it to hard - 1989 740GL

Yesterday my 19 mo. old daugter was rushed to the ER by squad. I was at work 45 miles away.

I made it home inside of 38 minutes..................

Well when I got back in the car it had no power. Not sure what got "knocked" loose. Any ideas, catalytic, fuel regulator, coil.....

She's fine BTW

hmm, first check compression. do a full tune up. check your catalytic converter to see if it's clogged. then check back with results.

Turned out to be either the fuel pump relay or radio suppression relay. I resoddered both and the cars running great.
