And you bought a $5 set of locking torque converter nuts to go with that too, right?

well i put in the new torque converter and flywheel and it was driving better but when i parked it after a short drive it pucked all of the new fluid out. i'm going to check the lines tonight to see if they are clogged and drop the pan to see if i cooked the trans or not

if i have cooked the trans then it will be parts

Man that sucks. If it did overheat, might just be the front seal

ok while driving it today it doesn't leak but i think when you put it in drive it starts in 3rd gear because it takes 1500-1750 rpms to start moving but if you put it in first then shift to 2cd then shift to drive its fine does any body know whats wrong

thanks
Quinten

Check the plug at the solenoid valve body.

When the solenoids are not powered the E4OD will start in fourth gear, not third gear. It will still shift manually. I think that's your problem.
