If you have a dirty transmission, you probably have bad transmission or
one that will be bad soon. Why are you changing the torque converter
with overhauling the trans.? Dirty trans oil is caused by the clutch
linings breaking down and their possibly slipping and burning up the
oil. Also , you don't want to run that dirt into a new torque converter.
All dirt that goes into one stays there as it instantly gets forced
against the outer walls from centrifugal force. If you plan to use
synthetic ATF, use it for the flush. An oil change will only remove
2-3/4 quarts with everything together. Another 3-4 quarts remains in the
torque converter.
