Stop in for a cup of coffee

Pulled the tranny out of Duster today....time to fix the flakey 3rd gear issue, pretty sure the lip seal in the direct drum must have a slice in it...the damn thing has also had a vibration...well when I pulled the pan off I figured out the vibration. I'm going with the converter was coming apart by all the metal that was in the pan. Tomorrow I will go through the trans and it will be ready for when the new converter shows up Wednesday...

That's a bummer. Got any pics of the filter and pan?
I'll say I don't regret going for the $$$ converter from Turbo/Action way back when. It's guanteed for cars going much quicker than mine. Overkill.

Well finally got a call on the mystery distrib, guy was refereed to me at Chargers.com. No wonder I had no clue. Trusting guy there. Super rare distrib in almost no books not even the Gavin Gullible books. No prefix letter listed prestolight books. IBS 4014G 69.5 440-6 MT. Have it done now, thing was a rusted mess. Actually had the right rebuilt vac advance for it somehow!
