engine check light while going in corners

[kalibwenm]

hi guys, i'm just wondering what could be causing my engine check light to come on, whenever i go hard through corners, especially when driving uphill, on my way home. The car doesn't stutter while that happens, and the light would go off when i restart the engine...any ideas?

PS. i had a carburetor engine (2E) at first, then i had a 4efte swap, but i'm still using the carburetor fuel tank, which may cause the fuel to move about inside the tank, while going through corners, but i never let my fuel go bellow 1 bar, so i find it strange to be acting this way...!? help please...

Have you done a diagnostic to see what the code its chucking up is?

as above. check that and you should be pointed in the right direction.

possibly knock due to the conditions it comes on

ok, i'll get someone to do the diagnostic...
