    89 civic loosing power round corners

    Basically I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts (other than that the car is a heap) as to why the engine would cut out as it turns corners at low speeds?

    The car is an '89 auto, standard 2 door civic, around 280,000k’s, and yes it is a heap

    any clues would be helpful
    thanks,
    stephen

    Fuel filter which is mounted on the passenger side of the fuel tank, under the plastic guard. $20 says it is dirtier than Paris Hilton

    A few $$ to buy a new one and easy enough to fit it yourself if you know what your doing.
