Thanks for the advise guys, Im looking at the torque converter because of the cars history. I purchased it yesterday and got 33 years of obsessively recorded service records. However it was parked for six years due to a leaky transmission and no brakes. The guy i bought it from purchased it because he needed the rack rails and mudflaps for his daughters wagon and was going to keep it for parts until he pulled the trans and found a bad torque converter seal, and replaced the brake master cylinder, restoring the brakes to fully operational. PO said the trans fluid was filthy and there was a ring in torque converter where it had rubbed the seal. The sysmptoms to me were screaming TQ

1. bad seal was found
2. trans fluid dirty
3. vibration when driving
4. extra low stall speeds and trouble enaging

I should mention that this morning I started it and drove it around the block a few times and it was better than it was last night with the exception of reverse, i had to really rev it to get it moving, and it still has excessive vibration almost like the tq bearing is dickered and the tq is out of position/balance.


Ill check the fluid today, it seemed good yesterday but Ive lost my familiarity with reading the black dipstick tip.
