When i get onto a interstate ramp and drive into a constante turn for 30sec,the gas gauage goes down as the car is leaning.Is that a sign of a bad gas pump or floater?The newer cars i believe don't do that or maybe it's cause of the age maybe.Does anybody else have this problem?

It's normal depending on how much you were leaning. The gas gauge won't react rigt away to compensate for sloshing gas in the tank. But leaning and staying at a constant 'lower level' it will show it. As you got out of the lean and continued to drive for another 30 seconds it went back up right?
