Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: When entering an interstate highway with a cloverleaf interchange the engine stalls because the fuel in the gas tank surges to one side. generally occurs when the gas gauge indicates one quarter tank of fuel or less. also, long sweeping turns to the right or left aggravate the situation. the engine stalls just when i am trying to merge with other vehicles. this is hazardous because i do not have the ability to accelerate to merge with traffic. additional baffles should be in the gas tank and/or the fuel pump pickup should be modified. *ak
