Hard Right
ok when i take a hard right turn, like turning in the drive way to quick for example my car dies or stalls,
most the time it cranks right back up, 2 times i have had to let it set for about 2 mins then i crunk back up. Whats the deal , I know the FP is on the pass side of car, so is the gas going to the left side of the tank and possibly starving the FP for a sec causeing this? Possibly btw, i have 99% of my wiring hidden in the front drivers side fender, and the front tire might be rubbing on something when its turned hard to the right. but i cant see anything there being obstructed. Shot me with some thoughts, and rag me for not having my inner fender installed, because I know for some reason thats going to come up! |

Re: Hard Right
I agree Brian, because every time I have stuck a screw driver in the #1 plug wire and laid it on the header, and no spark.
Also what if ya got spark coming from the coil but none from plug wire to the plug? |

Re: Hard Right
Check under the hood tonight while it's running -- see if you have any kind of light show. Move the coil wire around with a "hot stick" and see if it arcs to anything. If you have a crappy coil wire, it could be arcing when you turn and robbing all the cylinders of spark.

Re: Hard Right
I had the EXACT same problem. Mine turned out to be the wire that went from teh starter solenoid to the EEC relay. It had found a sharp piece of metal from a hole and rubbed through the insulation. It would grond out when taking a LEFT turn on mine. I eventually found it when it grounded out one too many times and burnt up the fusible link.

Re: Hard Right
Hey Disney was this on a Lincoln or a Mustang? Either way would you by any chance happen to know exactly what the color scheme of that particular wire was. Chance has it I have my damn solenoid mounted inbound the fenderwell also! Its a pain in the ass to work on, but I have one of the cleanest engine bays in my area, for an EFI car.
