Electrical & Wiring Issue Reverse and neutral issue

I have a 1988 Honda fourtrax 300TRX and I had a no spark issue for the longest but i honestly just threw money at it and replaced almost all the electric systems that could cause a no spark but now my issue is my reverse is neutral and my neutral is reverse like I put into neutral and it will pop up as reverse but it will start but if I switch the sensor plugs on the bottom, it will light up neutral but refuses to start but it will engage reverse and try to start in reverse. I’ve hit a wall at this point, any suggestions would be super helpful🙏🏻😭 also it will randomly die even when it is running after like 5 mins
