    cutting out temporarily on corners

    Hi Guys

    Have a bit of bad luck with my 1997 LWB 2.5 Petrol t4 of late.

    The recent issue is when I drive around corners the van cuts out for a second or 3 then kicks back in and runs fine.

    We just got over a major issue with the serpentine belt slipping and the causes the timing belt to slip!!! That issue was resolved and a few weeks later now this is happening.

    Any thought to the fault??
    Fuel related? I replaced the fuel pump a few months back.

    Any help or feedback would be welcome.

    Has to be a loose connection if it only happens on corners some sort of plug somewhere not connected properly , check the engine bay and wiggles some wire with the engine running and see if it happens . Mate had a $120000 Range Rover new that did this on a RH turn into a roundabout , the car was at the dealers for weeks and weeks until it was found that the whole steering column wiring loom was faulty . An air bag wire was rubbing somewhere causing it to shut off fuel supply as it thought the car was in an accident ! Doubt the Transporter would be that technical .

    If it's fuel (assuming you have a fairly new fuel filter as well) then it behaves differently on a full tank as to say a quarter.
    I had the same sort of thing, I think it was the left and right swerve in roundabouts................

    Anyway, I think it ended up being the coil, of all things.........or maybe the lead to it. (was a long time ago now)
