Every so often my 325i sport struggles for power. It's a really intermittent problem but happened again the othr day. Put your foot down and she just does not have the power. It's like the fuel is not getting into the engine. I have been told that the fuel line is rusty and will need replacing at some point. It's not the head as I had a new gasket fitted about 1k ago. Any thoughts?
