Re: [FWDLK] Torque converters and flex plates

[Scott H <kneedrager@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are no real tricks to removint the torque converter, just pull off the
sheetmetal cover on the bottom of the bellhousing (if you have one a lot of
times they are missing.  You may have t opull the starter to get the cover
off i dont remember) Their are  4 bolts that attach the converter to the
flex plate.   pull one, turn the motor 1/4 turn, pull the next and so on.
Good luck.
Scott
