    Stalling problem?

    Hello i have a Bmw e34 1988 with an m30 engine. For some time now i have had a stalling problem with my car. My car starts and runs well. You can drive it with out a problem for a time but randomly it will just stall with no warning. Whenever this happens instrumental cluster will go crazy. Rpm meter will go from left to right wildly,fuel use meter will go back and forth from 0 to 30 and brake warning light dosent light up(handbrake and ABS light are on but the middle on is not,it will come on when it goes back to normal)and some times oeldruck motor code will come up but it will go away when it goes back to normal. This all will happen couple of times when i turn ignition on and off. When all this happenes the car wont start. After couple of times it will go back to normal and the car will start. I dont know how to even try and start to fix this😅.

    I checked the fuses and they were fine but the wire for B fuse that went to the battery broke of as soon as i touched it so i changed that(I also cleaned the ground wires around the car). I went for a drive(about 30 min)and the car drove fine with no signe of stalling but it is hard to say did it fixed it or not because it does not always happen when i drive. Do you have any other ideas what it can be if it happenes again?
