I beat on my CircleD for around 2 years before my 60e crapped out. It never let me down.

I couldnt be happier with my circle d, their customer service is awesome.... And the converter pretty well acts like a stcok converter just tooling around cruising through neighborhoods or whatever, but a whole other animal when you open it up...

So I got another stall and the truck is locking up again, woo. Now I've been getting transmission hot signs. The fans are turning on too late or not turning on at all, could it be because of the electric fans?

Did you flush them out before you installed the new converter?

Well I'm still having trouble with the guy who built it, he should have flushed it.

The guy was blaming it on the electric fans, but I don't understand what the fans have anything to do with the transmission.

This also happened two weeks ago, transmission was leaking. I took it back he "fixed it" drove it home and then all of this happened. It wouldn't move so I had to wait all weekend to take it back to his shop since he closes on the weekends. I take it Monday and I get it back on Friday, and I drive home and on the way home I get the transmission hot warning sign.

Beacuse they are pulling air across the cooler, which pulls the heat out of the cooler and fluid in it...
