Sorry to jack your thread, but can someone tell me what a stall converter does? How does it get used while driving? The word "stall" throws me off, do you some how rev up the engine before you go?

it allows the engine to rev to higher rpms before it launches. when you are just cruising its not much above normal. trottle position has a lot to do with how much rpms it will flash to. if i stall to 1000 and then floor it mine would go to 2400 rpm's and then launch. it is usually good for one truck lenght.

So you have to rev it up to a certain rpm at launch, ie, 1000 rpm? Do you have to hold your brake and rev it up? Is it programmed to rev to a certain rpm, ie., 2400, 2600, 3200 stalls?
Does it stall everytime you go, or only at WOT?
