I think you can check for a balooned converter by just pulling off the dust cover and looking up in there with a flash light. I've never had one do that to me personally, but I've heard of it happening before and have seen it as well.

Another thing would be to pull the oil pan and check for bearing material. If it took out the thrust bearings, then you'd have a lot of bearing material in your oil.

Or drain the oil into a good container and filter it with a coffee filter.. check for foreign matter.. and cut open the oil filter..

be the easist test at the moment.

Converter locking at 81 is stupid. thats even at very light throttle?

That seems like it would be a lot easier than dropping the pan like I said to do.

I too agree that the tune for the converter to make the truck turn 3100rpm at 65mph is a joke

but why did you proceed to drive it like that? especially up to 275 degrees

Was told it was cause of the Stall. Had banker099 look at tune and we done a scan to the tune and sent tune to TPS and still nothing over a month ago... Trans temp usually ran around 220-240...I didnt know it got that hot till DIC notified me and I checked the temp.

Trans shouldn't be over 200... "operating temp." is 160-200
