good luck

Wonder how long you'll be before encountering a stuck bolt or rounded head?

Might be an idea to have a set of these on standby, I've found them invaluable over the years

Me Embarassed Laughing

Fitted a new torque converter. Never had an issue in the past when replacing TC's, but this has a leak now

Either a damaged seal or a faulty TC. I'll be annoyed if I damaged the seal, but I have a new seal, just case.
I'll be really Censored off if it's a faulty TC Evil or Very Mad
