Re: Engine stops after being put in to gear

Needs a tune-up... new plugs, cap, rotor. All new fluids. Find all the visibly broken or missing or hacked stuff and fix it. Basically, all the "new to me" car stuff we all go through. Nothing specific to "these" cars, yet.

Start there. Come back after you get that done and we'll start troubleshooting.
