           Have you checked to be sure you have a good engine to body ground? Poor grounding can result in some strange electrical behavior.

Over the last few days our 61 Newport has died during sharp right turns.  We
are experiencing a total electrical failure - no ignition, no lights, no radio
- - nothing.  System returns to normal when the steering is brought back left.
Left turns do not affect it.

I have no doubts that I can find the problem if I dig into it, I'm just
wondering if anone else has experienced this so I can't cut down my
troubleshooting time.

Thanks,

Oh, those waiting on the poly 318 parts, I'm still procrastinating.  I'll box
them tonight while I'm waiting on the trunk paint to dry.
