Hey guys quick question. I was taking a corner kind of quickly a couple of times today in 2nd and it seemed as gravity was shifting through the corner my throttle cut out. Any ideas what this could be? I have no clue.
Thanks.

throttle cuts out
By any chance did you have less than quarter tank of gas?
And did you replace the fuel pump strainer recently?
Does it happen only on sharp right turns?
Its could be because the fuel pump is going out or the strainer is not long enough to wick the fuel out to the pump intake at low levels.....
It could also be a loose connection in th electrical system somewhere.....

I had kind of the same problem, my ignition was cuting out because of a loose wire on the distributor. I put my bet on a bad connection somewhere

Re: throttle cuts out
the problem is still occuring...i'd say at less than half a tank or right at is when the problem starts. I have not had time to try the strainer solution but I have checked for a bad connection and haven't found anything. I'll keep you posted.
