I was talking to Jim Hughes at the drag strip a few years back and learned that when you have the motor stalled up against the converter, you're building heat at the rate of 50 degrees per second. If the fluid is already at 200 degrees, it won't take long to cook it at that rate. Pretty interesting, huh??
thats fine, but the place to check what you have is after it goes through the cooler. when the conv temp goes up the pan temp goes up also, so you work with the cooler to get the temp in the pan to what it should be and that will take care of the conv. when some body ask you the temp of your trans oil thats in the pan not at the conv. you give someone the conv. temp he wouldnt know what to do with it.
