It was the external fuel pump. I stuck a screwdriver on it and waited
till the car warmed up a bit and listened to it stop. changed it out

Bad fuel pump relay would be my first guess. Main relay could be bad
too. And don't forget corrosion in the fuse box either, which is a popular
one.

Had a similar problem with my old E38 --------- dodgy fuel pump - swapped it out
and never a bother since - car now sold and still going well.

How did you replace a fuel pump in 11 minutes (time between first post and
second)?

Probably took 3 weeks to find the problem but wanted to look smart but forgot to
change the date and time of first post.

That is the time the message was received by the server; my news server
has he posts one minute apart. He could have sent them 24 hours apart
but if they were delayed along the way then they would arrive much
closer together.
