If the stall speed is slower than specified what could be the cause

A slipping stater clutch

Technician a says that at *Speed the impeller is spinning as fast as the engine can drive it. Technician B says that a stall speed the turbine is stationary

Both technicians

Technician a says that fluid motion inside a converter is controlled by the guide ring the technician B says that fluid motion inside converter is controlled by the stator vanes

Both technicians

Technician a says that the flexplate connects the torque converter to the crankshaft technician B says that the torque converter is considered part of the transmission

Both technicians

Technician a says that the turbine provides torque input to the transmission gear set through the input shaft technician B says at the pump impeller is a driving member and the turbine is the driven member

Both technicians

Creep is___

Caused by slippage inside the torque converter, normal operation, causes a vehicle to move slightly when the engine is an idle speed in the transmission is in drive gear

Can you lock up torque converter the

Clutch plate is splined onto the turbine shaft clutch line and transfers power through a mechanical connection during lock up

The torque converter clutch circuit is controlled by the

Command from the PCM/TCM

A torque converter is more efficient while

Cruising

During the Coupling stage the stater one-way clutch remains locked

False

Modified engine may need a torque converter that is

Loser, has a higher stall speed, smaller in diameter

A vehicle creeps faster than normal when the engine is called what is the most likely cause

Normal operation

The stater is mounted on a

One way clutch

The torque converter should be checked by a technician for all the following except

Proper balance

A torque converter turbine end play has measured to be .070 inches what action should the technician take

Replace or rebuild the torque converter

The fluid flow around the circumference of the converter is called

Rotary flow

Stall testing can be used to find

Slipping clutches slipping bands is slipping stater clutch

A stall test is used to check the

Stater

Technician a says that the torque converter impeller is attached to the flexplate and turns as the engine rotates. Technician B says that the turbine is attached to the flexplate and turns as the engine rotate

Technician a

Technician a says that the torque multiplication Phase can occur in the state one-way clutch begins to freewheel technician B says that the torque multiplication phase can occur when the state or one way Locks up

Technician be

Lock up torque converter's use a definite assembly to dampen

Tortional vibration

The parts of a torque converter are

Turbine, impeller, stater

The fluid flow from the impeller through the turbine in stater is called__flow

Vortex

During the coupling phase the

Vortex flow nearly stopped
