Hey my mom has a 88 740 GL Vovlo and she has this wierd problem with it. I don't know if you guys will know anything but sometimes the engine just turns off out of no where. Today she was driving and the engine just went off, I figure its an electrical problem but the wierd thing is that, it happens maybe once in 6months and it takes like 10minutes to start back up if that happens. It will eventually start back up.

Also if you have the key to the run position without starting the car the speedometer needle jumps up and down. So that really concludes that car has an electrical problem. Anyone have any ideas? The mechanic can't seem to find anything.
