    Torque Converter Observation...

     



    If a converter's instructions state that it is not meant to be used with a Trans Brake, it's probably not lying. Don't ask me how I know...

    Suffice it to say that the noise, fluid, and scattering metal pieces will be talked about for some time around my brother's neighborhood. I knew I shouldn't have let those whistles and gestures talk me into doing that launch as I left for home...

    Sounds expensive!!!!! Oh well, most lessons are, I guess! Just don't get the idea you're the only one who's done something like that, just one of the few who will admit it!!!
