Hello, so I just got my FC turbo (S5), it's in original condition and the engnine seems to be running just fine.



the problem is not directly engine related, at least I don't think so.



I noticed, it happened 3 times so far, when I take a short left hand corner "energically", it just somehow died for a short second (actually pretty less than that). Meaning like the engine stopped somehow (fuel cut or something, I got no idea) and restarted.



the engine didn't actually stop but it felt like a fuel cut or ignition cut of some sort. The car was taking average bodyroll (stock suspension) and it never happened in a right hand corner, only left hands.



So now I'm here, and I'd like to solve this problem but I have NO idea on what it could be. I know the basics of rotary engine (I was looking for mine for 3 years, they're VERY rare where I live, probably less than 20 in the whole country, so I had plenty of time to "learn"), but this, I have no idea nor I've seen a similar problem on a forum or website.



anyway, if any of you guys have any clue on what this problem might come from, it'd be very appreciated.







here are a few pics of the car

nice car!



that fuel cut thing, is weird, ive had that on a couple of cars. its fuel slosh. the fix is really odd, there is a little filter on the pump that gets clogged.



replacing it fixes this
