Car Stalled & died 850 1995

Hi guys,

I had a bit of a problem yesterday on the freeway - as I was driving amd the car (95 850 T5R) started stalling and eventually died.

The car starts, it idles really rough - feels like some cylinders are not firing and if I don't keep gassing it dies. After a few minutes running, it idles fine, but if I give it gas and let go it dies again. Also, if keep it above 2,500 - 3,000 rpm, sounds like it runs fine.

The weird part is that it is not giving any error codes. Check engine light is off.

I've done a 90,000 mile tune-up 2,000 miles ago.

I don't know if this has any relevance, but this happened about 10 min. after I filled up the tank - can it be bad fuel?


Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
