I have a 1980 with 3 spd auto trans . The Torque converter clutch will not engage . I have a shop manual , but wondered if anyone has expereienced this or found the posible fix ??
Thanks gtgt87@yahoo.com

There should be a wire plugged into the tranny. It controls the converter clutch. If it is unplugged or missing - no lockup.
Keep in mind also that it was a common thing to yank the wire on a 350C when lockup problems that could not be resolved easily came up. It wasn't a fix, but it was a cheap way to sidestep or put off a teardown.
