When I read this earlier I remembered an Omni that was in the shop at the Dodge dealer I worked at in the early 80's, it too would die when put in reverse but it was floor shifted... The problem was a wire harness that got torqued on the the vehicle was put in reverse.. "The Armies of our ancestors were lucky, in that they were not trailed by a second army of pencil pushers."
