Bogging/Loss of Power

I have an '86 22R and every time I turn to the right or use the brakes the motor bogs, and if I don't feather the gas, dies.
I thought that the float was possibly causing it with too much fuel in the bowl causing it to flood out when inertia pushed the fuel level forward and to the left. Not the problem.
I replaced the vacuum lines when I rebuilt the carb. Also, not the problem.

I'm now wondering if it's electrical of some sort.

Any ideas? Trying to get this thing fixed.

Thanks

When you turn right, often, the gremlin people encounter is that the ground wire is compromised, and then, when turning, it's stretched to the point that it loses an adequate grounding and can clip out the ign/fuel system(more often in EFI)... The only reason it 'APPEARS' to come back to life is because the power behind your skinny pedal when turning has temporarily disappeared, causing the motor to drop back down on the mount and reconnect the compromised ground.

I KNOW this is not 'ALWAYS' the answer... Not even 'most likely'... but it's something to rule out, as ground issues can cause someone to chase their tail for LONG periods before they find out it's that simple to solve issue.

Best wishes, man,.... hope you get it quick!
