    98 540i loss of power on wot

    Please help me . I had a valley pan gasket leak. I change the pan and put everything back together along with new water pump and t-stat and fuel filter. But I have a major issue as I have the car running it seams to be ok but as soon as the throttle is wide open the car goes into cylinder shut down. I don't know why. Please if anyone has experience this before what is the repair
