Everytime I put my car in reverse it stalls. I saw two sparks under my car when it stalled while my bro tried to drive it.

Is my tranny messed up or is it electrical? Thanks.

Where were the sparks coming from? Do you have any loose wires under there.

Problem solved.. my new cold air intake was rubbing against my battery terminal whenever I tried to go in reverse.

glad to see it was something as simpe as that. Congrats on figuring it out, but make sure you keep those terminals from touching anything! You don't want your engine to go "KA-PLEWEY!" ... especially without letting us have a chance to buy parts off it first wink.gif

congrats once again
