Re: stalling in turns

Sounds like the fuel pick up tube is rusted out.  Don't let the car keep
doing this.  My 82 used to do the same thing and it killed the fuel pump
after only a few times.  I'm not sure how often it happened to the previous
owner though.  I never fixed it, I just tried to keep over 1/4 tank and went
slower around those highway on/off ramps when the fuel got close to 1/4
(took a lot of self control).

86 528e - waiting for spring
82 Scirocco - RIP


PS.  Are you looking for any parts for your car?  I have some that I was
planning to put on E-bay such as rear wiper motor, wiper reservoirs,
computer, temp gauge, volt gauge, headlight/blinker assemblies
