engine failure during left hand turn
when i turn hard to the left and i am powering at about 3k rpms i get a loss of power and all my warning lights come on like i stalled but after a few seconds they turn off and i get all power back. it only happens while im in 2nd gear. could this be a problem with my transmission???

check the battery cables and both ends of each connection, then check the alternator wiring for chafing, broken wires or loose contacts or corrosion, lastly check the ignition switch. if it's none of those then it is somewhere in the harness likely and the nightmare begins.

Common problem. Fuel starvaton during hard left turns. The fuel pump inlet filter is varnished over or clogged with dirt etc. Either buy a new one or put the filter in some acetone overnight and blow it out with a air hose.
