Seems to be connected to left-hand turns.....but it sputters and has no power sometimes. Sometimes, it runs like the champ I remember. I tried fuel injection cleaner. I'm a single mom with two kids in college, this car has to last for another 3 years!
 
If you're turning left and it's sputtering out I'd say it's fuel delivery related. My guess is your fuel pump is bad, or else the feeder line inside the gas tank that goes to the pump is cracked and sucking air when the gas sloshes to the other side. Does filling the tank up all the way alleviate the issue? If so, I'd start with the feeder line. If not, probablt bad fuel pump or maybe a clogged fuel filter.

I'd stick with the Volvo, they're good cars and will last forever even when miles are high.
