Anybody ever experience this? Clogged air filter maybe? Rusty, I thought of something else. If this only happens with a full tank it may be that the gas cap is not sealing properly and gas is flowing out of the tank on turns. This in itself is not bad but if the big rubber grommet that seals the fender to the filler pipe is rotten, gas will run into the trunk and from there all over the passenger compartment.
