2000 360 Dies when put into reverse

[bmc98]

I bought the truck from a guy a couple of weeks ago not knowing this issue he told me after i bought the truck.When i got the truck home i went to back up and it died the only way to back up is if i double foot it and the truck will also do it sometimes at idle.But also it only does it when the trucks warm. I got my obd2 out and i cleared the codes and went on a drive and code P0138 came back up. Would a o2 sensor do this? My last dodge was a 97 with a 360 and it was straight piped with no 02 sensors and it ran fine.So any input would help me at this point.

Check thermostat - my 95 V10 did this once , but in winter and it was thermostat.

ill look into but i dont think thats it it sits halfway from 210 all time

Install new plugs , wires if needed , clean the hell out of the throttle body and upper plenum , install new IAC Valve & PCV valve then run a tank 0f 91+ octane with additive Seafoam through it .

My last Dodge did this the above fixed it , basically with no oil catch can ever have been installed my throttle body and upper plenum was coated with burnt oil and carbon /gunk from the PCV valve discharge @ 95,000 miles .
Oh install an oil catch can.

Hope this helps !

Easy way to see if o2 it's causing it. Unplug o2 (one at a time).
Then do what R.L.K said.

02 will not cause this, yes the IAC will for sure. Get a new one from Dodge factory part only.

crank position sensor. my ram did this for over a year until i replaced it. Its on the back of the engine on topof the bellhousing.

You bought a truck from "A GUY" and he told you about the problems "AFTER" you bought it?
DID YOU NOT TEST DRIVE THE TRUCK FIRST? Or did you buy it sight unseen and went by what he said over email?
Still, this is completely YOUR FAULT.
Hope you got a
