Lock up convertor operation in a 82??
My question about the lock up convertor in the 82s are under full throttle and around 80 mph if feels like it's locking up and drops a could hundred rpm and you can feel it slow down. I didn't think it would do that under full throttle. Is this correct for this ?
Thanks.

The lockup clutch is only meant to be used during low-power cruising conditions, as mentioned above. When throttle is increased, lockup should drop off (per controller programming) so that the lockup clutch is not damaged.
