    CONVERTER OVERHEAT AND/OR K2 CLUTCH FAILURE
    COMPLAINT: Torque converter overheat and/or a no engagement condition. During disassembly and
    inspection, the K2 clutch may also be incinerated which could cause a loss or slipping 4th,
    5th and 6th gears. Note: There may also be a complaint of a no engagement condition after
    overhaul if the root cause of this problem is not identified.
    CAUSE: The stator shaft is pressed fit into the cover rather than being spline fit. This allows the stator
    inside the converter to exert enough torque onto the shaft to cause it to slowly turn in a
    counterclockwise direction (Figure 1). This begins to restrict the converter charge passage
    causing the converter to overheat. The K2 clutch circuit and the internal lube circuit may also
    become compromised causing additional transmission damage.

    CORRECTION: At the time of printing, the pump is not available separately from the dealer. It must be
    purchased as a package which includes the valve body for approximately $1,500.00.

    If the stator shaft is not badly damaged, it may be possible for a machinist to reposition the
    shaft making modifications to hold it stationary to the cover.
