Oh you were :) good good, I didnt want to hurt your feelings if you were serious about wanting that kind of cash for your baby.

my wife would kill me at this point if i drug home another car :)

Here's somethimg to seriously consider. Buy my car and you won't have to worry about your wife -- she'll leave you. And when she does, please give up all vices, restrain from drinking, from smoking, from food, and all else. But believe me you will have a life -- your life will be the car.

I seem to be back to square one. The original problem has resurfaced - loses all power after about 7 miles after starting, then restarts with no problem, But I can count on this repeating another 2 or 3 times before I can get back home.

The connector to the water temperature sensor was replaced but not the water temperature sensor itself. That's next - but is the water temperature sensor which I can obtain from Advance Auto Parts good enough or would the water temperature sensor for the early 80's BMW 6-cylinders be a better choice?

Only the 77 810 had an external regulator. All the rest had internal. I am watching this thread rather than commenting because I've never experienced this with my 810. I did have a similar problem with my Z back when I frist bought it and it turned out to be one of the relays in the box under the hood. Can't remember which one however. I do recall that when it (the relay) acted up, the fuel pump would stop.
