It sounds like your car was starving for fuel on right handers. What was the fuel level at the time? You could have a problem with the fuel pick-up in the tank.

Another alternative is loose wiring connection to the fuel pump, which allows movement in right hand bends and breaks the circuit. Check fuel pump wiring circuit, starting at the pump connection on the tank and work forward.

I'd say loose electrical connection somewhere? Maybe? As soon as you said 'gas' I lost my train of thought.

it was the cas the little notch on it to lock the plug onto it is gone so every time i went around a bend it would come off just enough to make it stall
