Hey guys! i've got a 1999 jeep cherokee 4.0, and whenever i get below about 1/4 of a tank, and i go around a corner somewhat hard, the engine gets starved of fuel for a few seconds. (The jeep's a manual, so the engine doesn't totally stall to 0 rpm, but it just coasts like you've lifted off the pedal suddenly). I checked the fuel pressure a while back, and if i remember correctly, it was about 46 psi, which sounds about right to me. Has anyone ever dealt with this before, or know what may be causing this? Is this just a normal thing with these jeeps due simply to fuel sloshing in the tank? Or does this indicate some other problem that can be fixed? I know it isn't a serious problem, but its still kind of annoying, and i want to do something about it if possible. Any ideas? Thanks

No, it's not a 'normal' thing for Jeeps to do.
Fuel delivery issue (like pump) is still high on the list.
I bet a search on this will give you some ideas how to go ahead.
