Hi

My 520i 86 model (e28)(automatic)Has 156km on it.
Ran like a dream until it Started has stalling, in motion, changed the fuel pump in the tank, it stopped for a while now it started again, and it Looses rev when headlights are put on and idle goes crazy when the gear is engaged,but will drive well, then loose power in motion.

When it does this I disengage the gear and restart the engine it starts like as if nothing happened until the next circle or until I slow down to a halt with my headlihgts on and the gear engaged then it goes crazy Idle and the engine will stall.

It's driving me nuts Please somerbody help me with an idea

PS:
It idles smoothly when the headlights are off.
