ive just fitted a recon auto box in my n/a ive got no drive at all even less than b4!!! ive put 8 litres of oil in it how long should it take to fill the torque converter and give me some drive??? or am i floggin a dead horse??? :( :mad: :( :mad: :( :mad:

Did you put a new converter in too?

takes just under 9 litres m8

you should really check the level when hot, as you say its hard to drive

warm up for about 5 minutes, then go through all the gears about half a dozen times, then check the fluid when the engine is running,

as above are you sure the convertor is ok??

 

just thought the above amount is IF you emptied ALL the fluid including the convertor, if you didn't you will have overfilled it, and will get the same symptons as if not enough fluid

i bought a second hand converter from a member off here who assured me it was ok ive got a brand new converter with the n/a fitting but the gearbox has a tt fitting so i had to buy the one off here
