Lose power on quick sharp U-Turn?
Hey Everyone. This just happened to me and I'm not sure what it means. I just took a pretty sharp u-turn in my 1979 vet and the engine light came on and I loss all throttle. The engine did not turn off and I was able to put it in park and restart it but I was wondering if this happened to anyone else and what it might mean? The car is also an automatic so its not stall or anything.
I had noticed before that my engine light was turning on when I took a sharp turn but I thought I was just seeing things.
Last time I checked my oil level everything seemed ok.
Any ideas?
