torque converter ain? where is that anywayz?

looks like ur 4th gear is shot like most of the older toyota 5th wont hold in place unless u force it and hold it there. time to get a new tranny. :)

hmmmm.....this is about a auto gearbox?

Is it an f4 box?.....with lockup torque convertor?...4th gear.

Stall test/Line pressure test will point to fault
