Torque Converter installation

Postby pozzi2thee [OP] » Nov 11 2010, 2:08pm

Hey there! I was just wanting to know if there is some way to tell if the TC is still hooked up to the pump after you tighten it up to the Flywheel. It is a little freeky when it slides out more then a 1/4 inch. I dont want to break my pump and start all over:)

When that happen what we do is put a washer between the flexplate and tc. You need the washers to the the same thickness use micrometers.

I got it put in. The TC slid back about 1/4 to 3/8's and stayed engaged in the pump:)
