I had the bad torque converter rebuilt last week - turns out the lockup clutch was completely worn out. I have a FE in this weekend with the exact same symptoms so the rebuilt converter is going in that.
Now here's the interesting thing - my gearbox had red ATF in it when I got it, when this converter died. Guess what's in the recently rebuilt FE's gearbox? Yup - red ATF.
Coincidence?
