Just the other day i lost it completely wouldnt even go past 50 without it running heavy and not wanting to accelerate. I tried hopping back on freeway and she wont go faster than 55 without it running 3200rpm and heavy. Fluid is at level. Im thinking my torque converter is the problem but any other gear 1-4 and speeds under 50 it runs fine no slipping. Wanting a bit of advice before i take her in since i dont have a back up car and plave to swap tranny or torque converter. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>SLWST50</b> <br /><small>Member # 11113</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2012,8,3,16,23,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Check your TV cable.
