Omega General Help / Misfire when cornering

« on: 14 April 2008, 14:49:50 »

Hi there all, hope you can help my poorly omega. It is a 2.0 16v ecotec petrol on a "R" 1998.
Every now and then it developes a misfire that only lasts about 5 or 6 seconds. Sometimes the engine managment light comes on when it misfires then the light goes out and the misfire stops.I know that the car goes into a safety mode when the eml comes on, but why does it bloody misfire.....please please and pretty please somebody help me.
P.S it seems to misfire more when i go round a sharp corner or roundabout.....how weird is that??
