Thread: Circle D converter TCC

    Circle D converter TCC

    Just put in a 3600 in my G8. Gas mileage is worse than I thought, haha. Thinking about locking it up 4th, 5th and 6th to help. For those with aftermarket converters, what is your strategy for lockup? Thanks.

    you want lock up anywhere that you are "cruising", but not lugging the engine. You dont want it constantly on the "stall", as this is creating heat
