LS turns off when shifting

[cableguynoe]

This has happened to me a few times.
Every time has happened when making a 3 point turn... as i shift gears into reverse the car turns off.
It starts right back up with no problems... but I'm getting worried that it's a sign of something going wrong.

My only theory is that I'm shifting too fast since I'm making a 3 point turn..

Anyone had this happen? Any ideas?

have you tried to do a 3 point turn and rev it alittle to keep the rpms up? if that works then it might have something to do with not enough air getting to the engine

quik ls mentioned an old problem that ford recognized that caused a stall on a quick turn and or stop the other day.

he said it was corrected by a reflash from the dealer....no idea what the cost was.

Could also be low trans fluid.

Funny you say that... I've been wanting to get that checked out. I know it's a pain on these dip stickless cars

Anyone know what the dealer would check to check the fluid level?
Also, can i harm the tranny driving around with low fluid?
