Note #1 In the future, remember to put a drain pan under the torque converter when pulling the engine on an American car with automatic trans to avoid having the shop look like something out of a cheap horror flick due to 8 quarts of ATF on the floor. Note #2 In the future, remember to reset the air compressor to 90psi to run air tools, 150psi seems to do very bad things to the impact. I'm hoping that by making a public spectacle of my stupidity I’ll remember not to make these mistakes again. Thank you for your help. Hey, this is a lot cheaper than real therapy.

Yup, Been there did that. My old TH400 on my Chevy held a case of ATF and then some in the converter.
Hell of a thing when a cooler line decided to spring a leak and dump tranny fulid all over the road. Seen my share of ballooned torque convereters exploding too Sure glad I don't drive old detroit iron anymore. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |
