Default Engine stalls when making right turn

I have a 1993 Mazda MX-3 with a 1.6 engine. The engine stalls when making a right turn only. Once the turn is completed,I can immediately start the engine and continue on my way. Other then that the engine runs fine. I only experience this problem when making a right turn and the engine is warmed up. It doesn't do it when the engine is cold. Any suggestions on where to start and what to look for?

Default RE: Engine stalls when making right turn

I have the same problem, when I have half a tank of fuel or less. I have been told that it is a problem with the fuel filter or contamination in the tank, but I have not sorted it out yet so I don't quite know. If you sort it let me know.
Thanks

Usually water in the gas tank. You turn and it finds its way into the fuel pump bowl. I have seen converters and mufflers that have broken up internally do the same thing but it is rare.
