Would a faulty ignition module cause the engine to try run backwards on 94 Corvette?

No, a faulty ignition module would not cause a 94 Corvette engine to try to run backward. The ignition module's job is to provide the high-voltage spark to the spark plugs. While a faulty module could prevent the engine from running altogether, or cause misfires, it doesn't control the direction of engine rotation. The direction of rotation is determined by the crankshaft's rotation, which is controlled by the starter motor and the engine's internal mechanics (specifically the firing order of the cylinders).

If your Corvette's engine is attempting to run backward, the problem lies elsewhere, likely in the starting system or a severely damaged internal component. This is a serious mechanical issue that requires immediate professional attention. Running an engine backward can cause catastrophic damage.
