I have an 97 neon that has just start to shut off/stall while I am making a right turn. It only has happened while moving and if I make the turn slow enough it does not seem to be an issue. As I make a right turn, depending on the speed and how fast I am going the engine will shut off and on or will just shut off all together. I have electrical power but the engin is off. Has anyone had this issue or have any suggestions on how to troubleshoot it? Please Help!
Thanks in advance.

How much gas do you have in the tank? low gas can cause this!

This is a rare phenomenon, many Domestic cars seem to suffer from this.

Jarrod, this is YOUR lucky day!
My 98 DOHC Neon Expresso did the SAME exact thing. It drove me nuts for about a month. I had people suggest draining the gas tank, change out the computer, replace the fuel pump, etc.
Turned out it was a hose clamp cutting into a wiring harness. I believe it was on top of the engine. I also had to replace a crank sensor that shorted out as a result of the wiring harness grounding out. It only took the mechanic 3 days to figure it out.
If you have further questions e-mail me at [email protected]
Later, AF.

Jarrod,
I have a '95 Neon doing the same...
Did you resolve your problem? If so, what was it?
