everything you describe is the sure sign the engine died. Need more detail. Check engine light on? Start then die...how long? Runs rough or smooth? exhaust wheases or rumbles? Possible bad gas?

GEN LIGHT means genorator and on a oldie like a 96 it means altonator and that could just be bad.. First thing you should check is your main battery fuse the one that is normaly white 160 amp that connects the battery cables from the fuse box battery and alternator easy fix 2 Phillips screws and replace

    My 96 Dodge is leaking trans fluid when it's in gear. and I'm sure it's all gears but right now it appears to only do it in in reverse. Any idea what it is and how to fix it?
