Default Weird problem happening...

Ok I got another problem with my car now.

And its really wierd I cant see what would cause this.

But here goes, My car runs great when driving around flooring it, high rpms, low rpms high speed whatever its runs great but as soon as I make a turn the car seems like it chokes up, it sputteres and pops a bit then goes away. As if I was running real rich or lean, What could cause this? It only does this when I turn or after I turn.

The only thing I can think of is that the Powersteering pump is taking alot of belt stress from the accesserys. Or theres a fuel cut of switch getting triggered when I turn.


Any ideas? Its an odd experience.

if you are running the stock alternator with an electric fan, it may be dropping voltage to the fuel pump due to the power steering pump.

happens when you turn? then the baffles arent working in your fuel tank. the gas is most likely sloshing to the side of the tank, choking the engine of fuel for a second.

It did it with 3/4 to half a tank I just recently noticed. I have a tex in line pump, think I should wire it in just in case its a lack of fuel pressure?
