i have a 1991 3.1 v6 firebird
and a 1989 3.1 v6 grand prix

ok on both these cars when my fuel is about in the range of 1/2 tank as i turn a corner i lose power almost to a complete stall but as i straiten out i regain power i know its something in the tank what is it? and can it be replaced?
i dont think its the fuel pump itself.... maybe pick-up tube?

 

when you say that you lose power, is it cutting out do to lack of fuel?

 

i dont know what it is but i dont think my car should almost stall when turning

 

it may be your fuel pump going bad...

 

where do you buy the gas that you put in both your cars

change the fuel filter first. But yea, bad fuel pickup location, or broken, weak fuel pump, etc.

 

ive never heard of a pump going bad ive just heard they go when they go they dont show signs of failure but i changed the filter common sense but still happens i can fill the tank to F and it wont do it at all i mean can this pick up be replaced without changing the whole unit?

 

the only time I saw one that was starting to fail was in my buddies 92 corsica. sometimes when he would turn the power on the pump wouldn't prime for like 10 to 15 seconds. sometimes it would cut out in the middle of driving. but also one more thing I just thought of from Sonix's question(where do you get your gas)....there was a privately owned gas station around here that a lot people went to because they're gas was retardedly cheap, almost a dollar less than everyone else....then one day they got busted....they had been watering down they're gas resivoirs.

 

BP or mobil thats about it
