Re: Car stalls when reversing 700 1988

It's most likely what the previous responses point to, but failing these, you might check the wiring harness connection to the AMM. Oxidized, loose, or dirty terminals can break contact when the harness leg which serves the AMM swings forward a little on shifting into reverse. Happened to me recently after washing the engine. I found a fine but evidently insulating precipitate on both ends of the connection, which I gently toothbrushed with contact cleaner. No more problem.
