renault traffic 02 reg, cuts out on corners?

hi people.
got up one morning to go to work, van would'nt start, thought flat battery, called breakdown , diagnosed fuel pump, towed to garage, fitted new injector fuel pump £700 with labour, new pulleys ,adjusted timing,
picked up van, first corner cuts out, but starts up, got to work, open gates, van cuts out, won't start, towed back to garage, new fuel filters, checked various wires, start and run great,but still cuts out going round corners, any ideas

It is very difficult to determine your problem and would check all fuel piping,back to tank if possible for rubbing through/chaffing and drawing air,it may be worth while trying to remove the primary pump and check there are no filters blocked on the fuel pick up,also have had fuel sender units registering 3/4 full when there was no fuel in tank.If you have had it on a code reader as I suspect it has been and no faults showing,I would make sure the workshop you are using have the correct unit for Renaults as some readers pick up more faults than others,sorry can`t be more specific but faults on modern motors can be a nightmare to sort out.
