It's always engaged.The more the resistance(what the output section of the convertor sees),the higher the 'slippage' of the convertor.

The convertor input(engine output) is always 'connected' hydraulically to the convertor output(transmission).Your 'engagement' is probably what you're referring to when you feel the car move/start to move.The hydraulic connection is always there.

do a 'search' in this forum for 'stall'
