I just had to go get my daughter because her 75 530i won't start. It has always run a little rough when first started since the cold weather hit. This time she said it started then died. It turns over, has spark at the distributor, and gas at the filter. Thats all I had time to check tonight but will go back to get it tommorrow. It won't fire at all. Was thinking it could be reeaally flooded or else has ice in the gas line. Is there anything obvious I should look for when I go to get it. Don't know much about these cars but seem to be learning fast out of necessity. Thanks, Tom
