Torque converter

Does the torque converter in my 93 F-250 eaod tranny have a drain plug? I'm finally gonna get my truck back on the road, and I figure since the engine is out and the converter exposed, I'd have it drained and refilled, but I don't know if it can be done or not. I just read in a magaizine that some converters aren't drainable, so I would have to get a new one.

Remove the convertor and place it hub side down in a pail for a few days.
That should remove most of the old fluid.
Then you can replace the seal in the pump.
