Question - when turning, does it starve out immediately or part way through the turn?
If part way through, and a low tank, it indicates the fuel pump is clocked wrong. The pick-up is not pointing down, it's to the side.
No need to drain tank - remove the screws holding the pump in, slide it out. Position the pickup to the bottom, put it back in.
While it's out look at the short piece of hose on the pump. They often use cheap vacuum hose that dissolves in gas. Replace with QUALITY FUEL LINE, AND NEW CLAMPS.
It's about a 1/2 hour job.
