Breaking up like you described can be related to a condition where the distributor drive gear is wearing out.
Had you checked it for rotor tip
travel (about 5mm of loose travel is the max) or had the distributor
indexed? The indexing procedure appears to be similar to an ignition
timing adjustment but isn't the same.
Chrysler TSB
18-08-93 Rev A describes a condition often seen on the 1992-1993 3.9
engine. The distributor drive gear wears out prematurely and then
wallows out the support bushing in the engine block. Your oil pump is
driven by the same gear through the distributor shaft, so cold engine
operation often is worse from the higher viscosity of the oil and the
resulting load it places on the worn parts.
The distributor
index slips to the retarded zone (trails what it should be) just from
the gear wear. Adding in the worn bushing and chain stretch can put the
distributor in a position where ignition cross-firing can occur and the
switch plate (cam sensor) within the distributor can drop out-of-sync
with the crank sensor.
If you haven't done so, check this out for
me. Remove the distributor cap and twist the rotor clockwise and
counter-clockwise. The total tip travel should not exceed 5mm, which is
just about 1/8". Even if it exceeds this, an adjustment/ indexing of
the distributor will get it running right again if only for a short
while.

The first thing you need is to have the unit scanned. Check things like the baro sensor,map sensor,coolant temp. and the TP sensor.Also check your fuel pressure,volume and injector spray pattern. I think you will have found your problem,but if not hit me back with engine size and any codes,Good Luck.

is this vehicle fitted with a chipped key ?? iam thinking factory immobilisor here?? but not sure what year it was introduced in america

MAY BE THE IGNITION MODULE, I THINK IS PART OF THE THE ENGINE COMPUTER.

The carburetor spits when its flooded - so something must be wrong inside it. Since this is the second time it has stalled when turning left it appears that the level in the bowl is higher than it should so the mixture is way richer : turning left pushes the fuel to the left in the bowl, making the momentary level even higher over the jets so the mixture gets so rich that it can't be lighted anymore so the engine stalls.
You will have to dismantle the carburetor, check the float for leaks and readjust it before reassembling it. While you are there check the size of the jets, they might be larger than normal.
