Hi all
I have a '99 Jeep Grand Cherokee LTD, and I've noticed that when the fuel gauge gets near 1/4, the car starts to choke when I accelerate after a making a turn, just like it's runing out of gas. This does not happen when the tank is full or half, only when it is getting near 1/4 and only when accelerating after a turn.
Do you have any idea what might be the problem ?

Start with simple things - try some Drigas, HEET, or gas treatment. You could have some waters or other impurities in your tank, which when it gets low, allows that into the engine.
