305 tpi dies when turning right??!!
Ive searched my butt off and cant find any help on my problem so maybe you guys can help me out. I bought the low on fuel so I thought that was why It was dying during the right turn. So I filled it up and still does it like clock work. It's a 1985 305 Trans am tpi. I ran fuel pressure tester on it and it pegs to 50 with key on. Drops to 45 at wot. And a test light to the ignition coil hot wire tells me i don't loose power there while turning. While not moving I can turn the wheels all day and it idles fine just while moving at all again only to the right. I'm new to posting obviously, sorry if im posting wrong. Please help.

Stay On Oval Tracks, No Need 2 Turn Right
Possibly a pinched wire.
Start monitoring systems.
You can monitor the ignition by wiring up a small 12 volt bulb (a side marker bulb works best).
Connect one lead to the coil primary KEY SIDE and the other lead to ground.
Make the wires long enuff to bring it into the cockpit.
The next it stalls while turning observe if the bulb is illuminated.
If the bulb goes out along with engine stalling you will know the problem area.
