I've heard people say it and I've read it.
Something to do with a/x or track driving, I think. A hard or abrupt turn without control that causes the fuel to slap inside the tank?

Funny answers, if you don't really know, are strongly encouraged. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/lol2.gif) I'll sort it all out.

Kinda figured that is why you were asking..... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) Best thing to do is not fight it. The car will straighten out on it's own. Fighting it will only make it worse. Smart ass driver a few moths ago got his Miata doing this manuever and just let go of the wheel. Car straighten up and he shot through the last cone and into the timing light gate a little sideways not hitting a thing. |
