Stalls on corners
Hey guys! i've got a 1999 jeep cherokee 4.0, and whenever i get below about 1/4 of a tank, and i go around a corner somewhat hard, the engine gets starved of fuel for a few seconds. (The jeep's a manual, so the engine doesn't totally stall to 0 rpm, but it just coasts like you've lifted off the pedal suddenly). I checked the fuel pressure a while back, and if i remember correctly, it was about 46 psi, which sounds about right to me. Has anyone ever dealt with this before, or know what may be causing this? Is this just a normal thing with these jeeps due simply to fuel sloshing in the tank? Or does this indicate some other problem that can be fixed? I know it isn't a serious problem, but its still kind of annoying, and i want to do something about it if possible. Any ideas? Thanks

Bad fuel pump? If you changed it and didn't point the little sucker the right way if you turn it could be starved for fuel at times.

No, it's not a 'normal' thing for Jeeps to do.
Fuel delivery issue (like pump) is still high on the list.
I bet a search on this will give you some ideas how to go ahead.
