1967 Ford Mustang 289.I recently replaced the heater core. After flushing and refilling there seems to be a problem with the radiator running for an extended period of time. On two occasions after having driven from a mile to a mile and a half I start to make a turn the car will sputter a little and then stall. It typically will not start again for ten to twenty minutes. I have not had this problem in the past and I am at a loss. There seems to be no overheating when this happens although I have noticed a slight bubbling around the top spout of the radiator below the cap. I have been told this should not have anything to do with the problem but I am unsure.

One of two things is probably happening. Your carburetor could be flooding when you go into a turn causing the engine to die or you may have a radiator leak that is spraying coolant on the distributor shorting it out.
