Re: torque converter help

Yes late 70's had a T350C which was lock up. I am not sure what year it started.

Also a major car manufacturer who shall remain nameless. Had a problem with there torque converters, and the solution was to pressure flush the converter. At least according to Ford.

Re: torque converter help

a transmission fluid change should fix that problem.
