Cruise loses speed 700 1985

Hello,

My '85 740 Ti loses speed if I set it to cruise control. It's strange; I can feel the car take control of the pedal, and it slows down much more quickly if I tap the brakes or switch the CC off, so it's working. It just won't maintain speed.

Any suggestions?

I've also got a goofy problem with my blinkers. Sometimes ("sometimes" meaning this has happened maybe three times since I've owned the car), I'll switch on a blinker and it won't blink. The bulb just stays illuminated. And this problem disappears after a random amount of time. What the heck?

Alrighty, thanks.

PS: There's a beat up blue P1800 in the movie "About A Boy" with Hugh Grant! Saw that tonight. There's also a sexy red one in the videogame "The Bouncer" for PS2. Quite a hot little car, that one is.
