When you install a torque converter you push in and rotate it by hand until it drops 3 times, once to engage the input shaft splines, once to engage the stator splines, and finally to engage the front pump drive which can be splines or just flat spots on the end of the torque converter "snout". When done and the transmission is bolted back in place the torque converter should have a small gap between itself and the engine flex plate and should spin freely until you put in the torque converter bolts. If there was no gap the torque converter wasn't properly seated in the transmission. |
