Still having difficulty with my 1990 740 Turbo...

Thanks for the advice on cleaning the throttle body, its now clean enough to serve dinner on. The car still sputters and dies while in drive as I stop, or when I put the car into drive (or reverse) while stopped (from having restarted the car when it died before). All of this is accompnied by the oil pressure light flickering on and off, ususally on (though once the car is moving the light is never on). Any other thoughts, its going into the garage on monday, I'll have them check all the vacume lines when its in. I'm considering a new oil pump (the car has 225k on it). I looked for the flame trap but couldn't find it to see if it was clogged.

Any opinions on what to look for next would be appreciated greatly.
