<VV> engine cuts out making left turns

[charles mckinley]

I had the exact same problem a couple years ago with my '63 Monza
3-speed. It was clearly fuel starvation from the centripretal effect of
the turn on the fuel pool in the carbs, and I fixed it by doing a very
careful and complete cleaning and retuning of the carbs. The problem has
not recurred.
