stall after sharp turn at speed
So this is the second time I've had this happen. I have a 13 5.0 offroad and both times I made a sharp turn at higher speeds (20-35 mph) and the engine stalled out immediately with the oil pressure light on. I'm not sure if that's because it stalled but why would it stall?
Sounds like fuel starvation as the result of keeping the tank low on fuel.
A fast, sharp turn would slosh the fuel away from the fuel pump's pick-up thereby inducing air into the fuel system or inadequite amount of fuel.

My 2009 Platinum falls on it's face on a fast left hand 90 degree turn, stumbles a second and he traction light shows momentarily. Have yet to get a handle on it and fuel level makes no difference.

No one knows what it is that I'm aware of. Seems to be intermittent with many not even experiencing it ever again.
This doesn't seem normal to me. If you think about it, why would Ford engineer a truck that would stall out during an evasive maneuver such as avoiding a potential accident.
Something to be checked out I think.
