1996 f-150 stalls when turning

my 1996 f-150 stalls(dies) occasionally when turning a corner whether going fast or slow,....... tried cleaning icv, changed spark plugs,air filter ,cleaned fuel filter and still does it sometimes. It idles and runs well otherwise. No problems show when checking error codes and no check engine light comes on.
Anybody have any ideas? Thanks

A bit of a long shot but I think there is a power steering pressure switch that signals the EEC of the extra loading when the steering is moved to help keep the engine from stalling, by modifying the program for a short time..
There could even be a problem with the pump loading the engine too much.

i had a tempo yrs back(yuk) that had the same problem...ran just great 'till you "leaned" on the steering
and that switch was the problem
