car dies when I make a sharp turn

I have recently bought a 1980 Pontiac phoenix with automatic transmission. I have performed full maintenance on the transmission mechanism & replaced the power steering box "where the oil goes".

The car works fine , however when I make a sharp turn "near 180 degrees" the engine dies. Advise please....

probably the fuel pump not sending enough fuel to the carb so that when it sloshes around in the bowl, nothing comes out. could be a problem with the bowl itself though.

I'd look first to a float setting. If the float is set wrong, you don't get enough fuel in the bowl and it sloshes away from the jets in turns. Fuel pump is also a wise choice, but it would probably show up as poor WOT performance first, but its always a possibility.
