Hello all, i just replaced my torque converter on my 4l60e, i put about 8 to 12 ounces of fluid in the converter. Still had about 2.5 quarts of fluid still in the trans pan after install i put about 5 quarts of fluid the car isnot moving until i raise the rpm to about 1800 rpm could this be from not enough fluid. i have read that the conveter holds 5 to 6 quarts of fluid and the pan holds 5 to 5.5 quarts so do i not have enough fluid in the trans for the car to move when the brake is released.

Have you checked the fluid level on the dip stick? It won't move until there is enough trans fluid in the pan.

It shouldnt take long to fill the converter full with the engine running. I would let it idle and get warm while maintaining the level on the dipstick. Also, are you sure the converter is correct for the application?
