Yeah, i changed it with my fuel pump, it's so frustrating and embarasing to be driving and then your car basically looks like it stals, haha i feel people who see me probably think i cant drive a stick..

If you have a new fuel pump filter (you did replace the one on the pump right?) then the next thing to look at is the baffles in the tank. If they are rusted away, then it can cause this problem as well.

Fuel Sock..It's clogged..(look up: Clogged Fuel sock Under SEARCH..)..The Shutting off when you turn left is one of the Indications..Seriously.
