Just got a '90 registered 900i took it for a test drive and all was fine but (now that I've handed over the cash) it seems as the engine warms up it starts to get a bit jumpy in lower ranges of gears, it falters slightly even when idling. So I start off in first and it starts stuttering and jolting until I get into the higher range, then second same in lower range, fine in higher, same in third upto a cruising speed then its fine. This is only occasional and generally when the engine is warmed. I have been informed the water pump maybe on its way out as it wobbles very very slightly but was told just to keep an eye on the temp - which I have and it sits comfortably just over half way on the gauge. Any ides anyone? cheers, Gwil. p.s. is the 1990 900i 16v?
