I have an '86 GL Automatic and I'm getting some serious idleing speed
noise from the torque converter area...
Details...
No serious leaks in transaxle (only minor seepage, no drips)
torque converter is dry and not leaking.
fluids OK
trans shifts fine, and engine pulls strong
Question... Cold I have a pinion bearing bad? When I remove the 3
torque plate bolts and spin the TC it spins fine but has some axial
play. is there a bearing in the Torq Converter? is there a pilot
bearing in the flex plate, or bushing loose? How is the converter
supported from the center or from the edges?
