problem with getting fuel

Post by MAZDASPEEDMX-3 »

ive been trying to figure out what this is, when ever i take a sharp turn,and it doesnt have to be fast, like even in a parking lot, my engine loses power completly. and it feels as if it isnt getting fuel, now the engine does keep running but it gets no power whatsoever for maybe 3,4,5 seconds. so if u maybe know whats going on let me know...thanks

could also be low gas, low oil level, or maybe a poor fuel pump.
