CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME OUT. I'M HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY
97 BMW 318I. THE IDLE IS RUNNING ROUGH AND SOMETIME
SHUT OFF ON ME WHEN I'M DRIVING AND SOMETIME IT RUN
FINE. I TOOK IT TO THE AUTO SHOP AND THEY READ THE
COMPUTER THAT SAID IT WAS THE CRANK SENSOR BUT BMW
SAID IF IT WAS THE CRANK SENSOR THE CAR WOULDN'T RUN.
I WAS ALSO TOLD IT MIGHT BE THE IDLE CONTROL VALVE,
BUT I CAN'T FIND IT. CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT THE PROBLEM
IS AND WHERE IS MY IDLE CONTROL IS LOCATED. THANK YOU
