when i throw the car into moderately long, hard, and sustained turns, the engine feels like it is starved for fuel. it will never die, simply it loses almost all power until i straighten out.

what i've done:

-checked timing (fine)
-fuel pressure at 30 psi
-new fuel filter

obviously, i can't check the fuel pressure while turning (actually, maybe that's not so obvious. i could probably rig a hose into the cockpit....) -- it just feels like fuel starvation..

any ideas? thanks,

nathan

ps car is a 75 2.0 (Djet)


btw, i'm open to the possibility that this may not be a fuel delivery problem, but i recently went through the ignition system, installed a crane xr700, cleaned up grounds, new FI points, etc.

So, it's both, right & left turns?
