hard to explain. It can run hella loose so your car can be stalling out. A stock converter shouldn't stall pass 1800-2000 rpms. So if your transmission feels like it's slipping till 3 k then locks your converter going bad...Also Ive had a converter take a **** on me once and it feels like your car Is Dragging.... You can feel the motor giving power but your transmission is not excepting it...
