Re: 1987 735i loss of power

How big a puddle of water?

It maybe water splashed onto some of the electronics and ignitions system.
Bogging down under acceleration is good sign of weak spark, so it maybe the coil, dizzy or ignition leads got wet.


You need to open the hood and get side and check everything is in place and nice and dry.
If you see an moisture around the ignition leads etc, then dry them off.
