engine flooding

[panzershreck]

when starting up my 90' 525i it sounds pretty rough but is at the correct idle rpm, when pressing on the gas the engine sounds like it's flooding... could this be the oxygen sensor, fuel pump, or perhaps something else?

i'm not sure what a running engine sounds like if it gets flooded... its probably just an oxygen sensor or a AFM.

Check to make sure all sensors, esp around the intake (where the air filter is) is connected correctly.

just checked it out again, idle is at about 600rpm which might have something to do with it...

My idle is about 600 rpm, its very normal I believe.
