Everyone Please Read!!!!turning out of my shop, the car cuts off
I am suprised that noone has ever asked or writen in an forum about this. Well atleast i have never seen anything about it.
Ok, heres my question.
I have....b4 i start, i do not know if any other 2nd gen does this, ive only tried it in my car. i have a 88 t2 10th ani. when i try to get it sideways from a stand still or just turning out of my shop, the car cuts off. I don't know if its electrical, fuel related i dont know. any1 ever notice this??

You *can* use the "delete" key and rearrange your post before you actually submit it...
I've never had a problem with my car cutting out under any driving conditions, including hard cornering and spinning it deliberately.

I have the same problem. I know mine is fuel related(as in gas gets pulled away from my pump). I just make sure my take is always full and i never have a problem.

Classic symtoms of a clogged fuel pickup strainer.
The best fix is to just replace the strainer, but if you're broke... click here for html writeup

no its nothing to do with strainer or anything like that. i was wondering if its something factory related for safety or whatever. everything is new on this car. ive put 14k on this new motor. im a mechanic and theres nothing wrong with the car. thats why i was saying if the factory had anything to do with it.

Former Moderator. RIP Icemark.
Title edited to actually have a subject in it.
And your symptons are for a clogged fuel pump strainer or rusted out fuel tank baffles. What makes you think it is not the strainer??? have you replaced it???
It is nothing to do with the factory on the car. It is a fuel problem. This question comes up often enough that I need to add it to the FAQ for FC at the top of this section. Please search next time before posting
