Default 2002 vert new gremlin
Driving around town and get in the throttle just a bit on a right hand turn, she stalls and acts like I've turned the key off for a split second. Then picks up and takes off as normal. Traction control off or on or not doesn't make a difference.
I've watched the engine to see if it moves under load and it does not.
Anyone else ran into this?

Consistent behavior? Fine in left hand and straight lines? Happens at all RPM or restricted to a range? Any codes?

No codes. Only on right hand turn from almost stop. I thought the engine must be moving and shorting a wire or something, but no movement. It acts a little like when I tried to drive my last one off snowy grass. Traction control almost wouldn't let it move, which is why I mentioned that!
Thanks!

Without codes it will be a guessing game, hopefully it was a one time thing.

Long time ago - my ‘98 felt like it did this once on a right turn into sub. Gas was below a 1/8. Is this possible for you?

I had loose O2 sensor extension wire short out on a header that was intermittent like this.

Did that stall the engine for a second?

It bucked and missed. Wire insulation was melted through and the bare wire would ground out.
