hey guys, first post, been searching the web for days but haven't found any help. my wife's 89 240sx auto has been stalling when coming to a stop sometimes and also when making right turns kinda hard. i cleaned the TB butterfly today and checked for vacuum leaks. stock except for a K&N filter and exhaust. 142K miles. seems to do this mostly when cold. any help or hints appreciated! thanks!

I had issues with my 240 stalling while taking turns after I first got it. Replacing the fuel filter solved the problem, although that was six years ago and havent had the problem since.
