car dies when **updates**
Yep and it really starting to make me mad, and then it wouldnt start back up, so I bought a new battery, starter, coolant sensor, air charge sensor, newer iac, new fuel filter. And the damn thing just died again. So im starting to think something is broken inside the gas tank.. any ideas?
** I filled the car up with a full tank and it still happens, When the motor is cold its fine, when I push in the clutch to downshift the car dies.

RE: car dies when stopping or sometime turning
you can rule out a fuel tank baffle by filling the tank up all the way if it still does it with a full tank then it may be something else but if it doesn't do it with a full tank then I'd pull the tank

If you've got a manual pump it could be that. I've heard of them stalling out while turning with the manual pumps, it has something to do with the pump not perfectly matching up to the psi needs of the motor... stock that is.

RE: car dies when stopping or sometime turning
im gonna go with a broken baffle also. I suggest topping it off with gas, and then driving, turning, braking etc and see if it happens. And by topping it off, i mean fill her up to the tippy top. If it doesnt happen its the baffel, and it will happen when your prolly below half but for sure at 1/4th.
