Engine hesitation

Hi The problem Ive got is with a 1995 bmw 316
1600cc,when setting off from a road junction I get a complete cut of the engine for a spilt second then the revs come right back ? also while crawling in first gear in traffic lets say, the engine revs start to hunt,the revs never climb its always a drop then a return back to original throttle position - rev point. Any help chaps would be apreciated.
