Re: Torque Converter Removal

Good suggestion. With a rubber tipped air nozzle on the test port, air flows freely. There's no pressurization. It feels like there's air coming out the front of the transmission but it's slight.

So the current situation is no direct drive clutch actuation in normal operation, the 40 tooth setup has the drilled holes. The clutch itself appears fine. Hydraulics on the test port indicate normal pressure at the right time when going down the road. Now there appears to be a clear path to the converter. What else could be causing the problem?

If I slipped the torque converter onto the transmission and put air at the test port, should I be able to feel the clutch actuate, perhaps in how the converter spins? I imagine the air pressure would want to push the converter off the transmission.
