When I reverse, the car stalls
Sometimes, when I reverse out of a parking lot, the idle like dissapears almost, and the car will just stall. Ill step on the gas and slowly reverse out, and then boom, it just stalls. Has this happened to anyone before? I have a 3 inch flowmaster dual exhaust. Is it air going back into the pipes the opposite direction thats doing it, and creating a vaccumm which creates a stall or what?
It is very annoying. Stock exhaust is angled down towards the ground, and I dont recall that happening when I had that. But is this **** normal, because its annoying me.

this happened to me the other day, i was backing out of a parking spot, tapped the gas lightly and the RPMs went up slightly and then dropped to about 350-400 and stalled. But i dont know the reason for this.

Running lean, hook up a scanner and check out the BLMs during normal driving. Change fuel filter, check pressure and replace pump AFTER you've made sure your regulator is still good.
