Normally the TC would lock up at 50 mph and you could really feeling it go into the 4 th rear low rpm shift. Now for some reason I don't get that big drop in RPM. At 67 mph Im at 2300 rpm. I have a SSF 3500.
Any Ideas?
Thanks

It sounds like your TC clutch could be toast or you could be getting a random misfire code ... how long has your converter been in the car and how many miles on it ?

2 yrs maybe 15,000 miles maybe I would have to look up the bill.
If my RPM is at 2300 at 67 mph is that indicating it is locking up your should the rpm's be lower at 67 mph ?

Locked up you should be seeing 78mph at 2300rpm w/3.23 gears. If it was a new install, it might be a tuning issue, but with the kind of time and mileage you have on it, it's almost certain that the clutch is gone and it's not locking up.

Found my bill looks like I got it May 18th 2004. Not many miles on it either.
What has TCI known to do if they have had a few complaints?
Thanks

They typically will replace it or repair it free of charge. Kevin Winstead is well known for taking care of board members who have had problems with their TCI's - the best reputation for customer service of any converter manufacturer on this board.

Q. I understand the computer sets the lockup would I not get a ses light because the computer is trying to lock it up but can't?

PS. I left Kevin a message so hopefully he'll call me and we can set something up.
Thanks

Just spoke to Kevin ( love the accent ) he suggested I drop the pan and see if any foreign material in there. Secondly look at the Tcc solinoid and see if thats the problem.
Keep ya posted.
