My friend drove my car and was driving the #### out of it, and while i was riding, i didnt feel it but he seemed to, and told me when he turned right and floored it, the car lost power (not electrical, but pull) for a moment like it didnt get gas. well i went to virginia and as i was going onto an on ramp really fast and hard, my car did exactly that except harder like it had momentarily cut off and then back on (yet the dash and stereo never went off) :-\ does anyone know what this could be? Its on a right turn, not a left turn. and the clutch pedal works fine. so im praying its not crankwalk. i do have a 2g 95 :-\

+ When he did it, I was low on gas. yet when I did it, I had half a tank of 93 supreme
 
sometimes when you turn a certain way your fuel pump is not sensing anymore fuel because it can shift to the other side... so you get fuel cut and your car can turn off

I have no clue what fuel cut feels like but if i was to guess it. thats what it would feel like. but i didnt think cars would do that. i would take my 86 celica (carb not fi) at harder turns than that and it wouldnt cut off. but i guess thats cause its not fi.

but is there a way to fix that?
 
Check all the major electrical connections Bro...anything to do with Battery, and/or Ignition first...1/2 a tank of gas should make your ride run lean like that...
