car pulls hard when accelerating

sup. my 95 likes to pull the steering wheel whichever direction your turning when you stomp it to the floor. it also tends to walk all over the road when you go over a little bump of any kind. any ideas of what the hell is wrong and what to do to fix it. thnx.

Re: car pulls hard when accelerating

usually, steering the other direction when hammering down in a u-turn happens in a RWD. FWD will just understeer and go straight.
You need to lift the throttle to make the rear come around, not the other way.
instability after a bump is shocks going.

additional info required: when last alignment? how does the bushings look like? Lowered? If so, you asking what bumpsteer is?
