Check your tie rod ends and stabilizer bar link. Mine is also a 99 s-10 and was doing the same thing, so i swapped all of the tie rod ends and that did the trick. Good luck.

do you mean the engine is dying? or it's making clunking noises in the suspension or what?

are you pinching a fuel line?

is the fuel pump going out? Poor suction happens to be the side all the fuel sloshes away from?

loose wire? only comes off when the body has some body roll?
