Not a GM .. but ? on the beater

My beater I drive sometimes is a 97 Kia Sephia .. awesome on gas mileage and I try to put about 1,000 miles a month on it to keep it off my truck.

Anyways, when the car goes into reverse it's starting to stall .. any ideas? Just looking to get it running a little better since gas prices don't appear to be dropping anytime soon.

Hmm does it have any hard shifting? or is the problem just in reverse?

Hmm it may be your torque convertor. I would suggest maybe getting a tranny flush.
