I'm going to be doing a tranny swap on a auto EF(just replacing not a auto to manual). I plan on changing both tranny and torque converter just to be on the safe side but would like to know some things to look for. He told me it gets up to about 15mph and then doesn't go any faster but the engine still revs like how a bad clutch would act. I'm getting 400 to do the swap including the price of the tranny and tq conv. which will cost me 100 at the junkyard. To me it just sounds like a bad tq converter. Any suggestions?

 

well..i've only seen tourque converters go bad when they leak fluid. or the slipines that conect the TC to the tranny are bad. it could also be the transmission. It's tough to say without taking ---- apart

 

torque converter but hell if your down there already replace both

 

tranny on my mazda went out like a bad clutch, started slipping lightly then bout 10 miles of average traffic it wouldnt move nemore had to shift gears manually
