I think I have big trouble. I have a 90 Legacy 2wd automatic wagon. When I put it into gear the engine just dies. The engine idles fine and the car has been running good. All of the sudden this morning this happens. Anyone have any experience with this problem before? I hope its not the Tranny. Any info would help thanks.

I had a similar problem recently- it was caused by a dying alternator (it wasnt charging the battery below 2k rpms, so if i didnt rev it for a min it'd die once i took it out of park) Get your charging system checked out, I dont think it'd the tranny if it just all of a sudden started doing this, generally when trannys start to go theres an obvious slip before it does go.
