Have any of you guys done this in your garage? <P>--Yes, I've done that a few times</P> <DIV></DIV>The main issue seems to be unbolting the torque convertor; the Bentley manual shows a special attachment for loosening the three bolts. Where can I get this? Do I HAVE to have it? <P>--No, no special tools needed.</P> <P> Since the torque convertor is the chief suspect in my troubles at this point, any additional information concerning its removal and replacement would be much appreciated. Should I just plan on having a shop do the work? Thanks in advance- </P> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV>--I had my torque converter rebuilt about six months ago, they only take so many cleanings.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>H�ctor</DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>MSN 8 helps <a href="http://g.msn.com/8HMAEN/2752">ELIMINATE E-MAIL VIRUSES.</a> Get 2 months FREE*.</html>
