Fuel pick up in the tank? Does it happen always to the same side turns IE: all hard right turns it bogs? Does it happen on a full tank of gas?

I have to have my 88 si above 1/2 tank when I'm autocrossing or it will do the same thing. The pickup in the fuel tank isn't situated in the ideal place.

Yep you hit it. The fuel pump pick up is more than likely on the left side( im a dsm'er give me a break ) and thats why the turns it wont pick up fuel and grab nothing for a second. Happened in my 1g dsm
