Question
I have a 1999 chevy blazer that cuts off repeatedly when making only right turns.  I have to put it up in park and then restart and it will normally start back up.  It's a nuisance though, I could be right in the middle of traffic.  Doesn't do this when going straight or making left turns?

Answer
Candy,
  I MUST preface this with my Profile... I'm a Parts Specialist, NOT a tech. Okay?? I am not qualified to answer this but will give you my best thoughts..
   This sounds to me like debris in the gas tank. You might look or have someone else look to see if the fuel pump in on the left side of the gas tank. IF it is, when you turn right, all the gas and IF there is any debris in the tank goes towards the fuel pump pick up tube. The junk or debris clogs the pick up tube and kills the engine.
  Candy, as I told you, I'm just a Parts Specialist and this is the only thing I can think of. I'm sorry not to have given you more options but I'm NOT a Tech.
  Good luck and thank you for your question..
