You know, Pete's right. Coil is an easy place to start, fast swap. And
makes perfect sense, it is oil filled, oil sloshes easily, and any
debris would short it.
Simply change it and go turn left. For a quick test, any point type
coil would work.
If you're bored, flip the old one in the other direction, then turn
right. :)
Also, check the ballast resistor, same idea, the terminal flops and
breaks the connection.
If it's not the coil, I wonder if you could duplicate it by jacking the
left side of the car up, so gravity simulates the turning force? Would
be a pain and require serious jackstands ETC but you could see where
everything shifts.
Good luck

Funny, all the almost all the questions asked were the same.

There was a guy on the 311s.org with a similar problem earlier this
year.
Took several months before he finally discovered (by accident) that it
was a
faulty coil.

[OK, this is weird. A definite head scratcher.
When turning left even at a fairly slow speed, my engine dies. I've
looked
for loose wires. I've got a new fuel pump. New fuel lines and filter. My
fuel pressure is a pretty steady 4.5 PSI. This started about a week ago.
I
don't have ANY clue what it may be. No issues turning right.
This is a U20 Solex.
Any clues or ideas where to start?
