The torque converter is between the engine and transmission, meaning, that if you want to replace the torque converter, you will need to either remove the engine or transmission or both. There is typically a standard shop fee for removing and replacing the engine, typically a few hundred dollars. Most transmission shops will tell you that it's not a good idea to just replace the torque converter; they don't typically represent the only point of failure in an automatic transmission, and if there has been wear on the torque converter shaft, it's typically because the bearing has worn and there has been inadequate transmission maintenance. A worn torque converter typically corresponds to a worn hydraulic pump which will result in low pressure, and weak shifting control. If the hydraulic pressure is low, clutches will not be held in place firmly, allowing a little slipping of the clutches and excessive wear. The bottom line is, you probably won't get out replacing just a torque converter. But if you do, a replacement torque converter will be another couple hundred dollars beyond R&R the engine/transmission.

How do you tell if your transmission is out or if its the torque converter?
Usually the tranny will go first, but it really doesn't matter. Take it to a shop that specializes in tranmissions, or if you want to experience the pain of replacing it yourself, take it out and haul it to a reputable transmission rebuild shop. Either way, they will tell you to replace the torque converter as a wise precaution even if it's not the problem. As there is no way to clean out a torque converter, any muck or metal shavings left in it will just get into your newly rebuilt tranny and ruin it fast. So count on a new converter no matter what. Also, if you replace it yourself, be sure to fill the new converter with fluid before assembly and flush out the cooling lines before hooking them up. One last thing, be sure to spin the converter when you push it into the tranny. You should feel it go in steps, about 3 or 4. If you don't get it in all the way, the converter will shatter the front pump assembly when you tighten the tranny to the engine. Then you'll have to take it back out and get it repaired, and it WON'T be under warrranty.

What are symptoms of faulty catalytic converter 1989 ranger STX?
If the converter is plugged, contaminated, damaged or rusted out, it must be replaced. Likewise, if the OBD II system is showing low catalyst efficiency, the converter must be replaced. Driveability symptoms such as a drop in fuel economy, lack of high speed power, rough idle or stalling are classic symptoms of excessive backpressure due to a plugged converter. Checking exhaust backpressure and/or intake vacuum will tell you if there's a blockage. The important point to remember is that converters don't just plug up or die for no good reason. There is usually an underlying cause which must also be diagnosed and corrected before the problem can be eliminated. Diagnosing a plugged or fouled catalytic converter is only half the fix. Replacing a bad catalytic converter will only temporarily restore things to normal because unless the underlying problem that caused the original converter to fail is identified and fixed, the replacement converter will likely suffer the same fate. Always replace the O2 sensor if the converter needs replacing. That may not be all that needs to be done. A defective spark plug or wires, or a burnt exhaust valve will also destroy the converter.
