Subject: Re: Trans problems.....signs of a bad torque converter? by corvettelou on 2012/3/25 1:49:16 Matt, just got my audio working on my laptop(kind of slow at those kind of things) listened to your video and thinking trans is shifting way too soon to 3rd. unless you have 4.56 gears or more. Mine shifts to 3rd. at about 25mph part throttle with 3.43 rear and many times I'll hold 2nd. manually cause it seems too soon. If you have 307s, a 383 and a 2400 conv. you are loading up that converter and it is slipping. If you hold 2nd. longer to say 30mph how does that work? I recall you once saying it was shifting early at the track.It sounds like a govenor issue or if it only shifts that early at part throttle a throttle valve or cable thing. your trans will run very hot like this and not last too long. |
