torque converter question
sorry if this is a stupid question, but i dont know jack about TCs. Starting last night i can hear/feel a loud sporatic pop coming from the transmission (or so it sounds) whenever i put it in reverse or when i am stopped in drive with my foot on my break...if i let it pop a few times it bogs the engine...if i put it in nuetral it goes away....is it the TC? would low tranny fluid cause this? it shift fine still
also...dunno if its related by slowly letting off the break..forward or reverse there is a jerking motion...seems like this is TC as well
again..dont know crap about TCs but these two issues seem related to me

i'll check the fluid asap...no, didnt install a tq converter. it is stock converter. tranny mount is fine...this is very discernable from broken tranny mount

Yeah, a torque converter is cheaper than to rebuild a transmission and a torque converter...At least if you need one, get a higher stall like 3000-3600, and the car will be a blast.

well..although the TC might be going...its not what is making the poping noise..i let the car idle to warm up tonight and it started bogging and popping (cant tell if its backfire or not) while it was in park..so i know its not trans related
