Aod Blues June 11, 2007, 11:48:59 AM [COLOR="Blue"]Can anyone tell me what burns up in an AOD when the T.V. Cable breaks. Would not come out of 1st when I bought it. Just pulled the Tranny... New torque converter inside... I am going to rebuild it and add a shift kit. Looking for advice on what rebuild kit I need?[/COLOR] Quote Selected

I was told the previous owner drove the car home stuck in 1st (20 + miles!) if you can believe that... Car was smoking when they parked it and they never did anything else with it. Pretty sure there is damage inside. I am tearing it down tomorrow. Did not find anything in the fluid and it really did not appear to be burned. Quote Selected
