As slow as possible. You should never be on the high end of the reverse gear, and the motor should be at idle as you're backing.
The sector shaft is the secondary or indirectly driven shaft in a manual transmission. It typically houses the "driven" gears along with reverse, although newer transmissions place reverse on its own shaft.
Some cars make noise like a squeak or a chirp when driven in reverse if they have high mileage. This noise is a warning that the transmission needs to be serviced. The filter should be changed along with the fluid.
WIf you drive x miles in reverse, you could have driven the same x miles forward - in "Drive". The distance between A and B remains the same as the distance between B and A - do it that way or some other way.
Depending on the year, the MLPS or trans range sensor is out of adjustment. If you have driven like this for very long, you have probably done a good bit of damage to the trans already and should start saving around $1500 for a rebuild.
Electronic speedometers/odometers do work in both directions. The old cable driven speedometers/odometers ran backwards in while reverse.
All serpentine belt driven water pumps on SBC engines are reverse rotation.
Yes and no. Yes: If you have a reverse flow engine which would be an LTI or L99 which were found in big Chevies, Buicks, Corvettes and Camaros, Then you need a reverse FLOW pump. It is driven by a shaft from the timing gear, so does not have a pulley on it at all. It does not match up with a non-LT-1 block. No: If your water pump has a pulley it can be either standard rotation or REVERSE rotation. If it is driven by a V-belt it is standard rotation. If it is driven by the back side of a serpentine belt then it is REVERSE ROTATION. This pump will have a pulley that is smooth and wider than a V-belt. These pumps will physically bolt up to the same block but the REVERSE Rotation spins counter-clockwise as viewed from the front of the engine. My '93 Suburban has a Reverse Rotation pump because it has one serpentine belt running all the accessories. When I put a new Edelbrock pump on it I made sure to get a Reverse Rotation pump. Your auto parts store genius should be able to get the right pump for you if you know the make and model year.
Did it just start? Mine also 'whines/howls' when driven in reverse at a quick speed. It may normal to the design. I seem to think that most Hondas & Toyotas seem to do this in reverse.
Through the process of Osmosis and, alternately, reverse Osmosis.
Reverse resistance should be infinite.
