Mike,

A car that cuts out briefly in left turns only sounds like fuel surge from an 
older, unbaffled fuel tank. Ask any TR250 owner about that. Does it only occur 
with about 1/2 tank of fuel or less? Triumph modified the fuel tank in the 
later cars to fix this.

I may be wrong  but I think the various devices found between the carbs and the 
valve cover are oil separators, not flame traps. The flame traps are smaller 
devices for the vacuum lines. 

Cheers, Tom
