Low stall

[silvergs]

Guys,

My stepson has a 06 LBZ that he picked up and it feels like the converter is too tight. It won't stall over 1100 and slams into gear. You have to stand on the brakes to hold it with no throttle. It has 290K on it. Could the converter be failing? I have never heard of one tightening up with miles only loosing up.

Sounds like a failed converter turbine

Sprag and race are probably worn out in converter.

Thanks Guys.
Will be swapping it out this week.

Swapped the converter and it drives like a new truck!

Thanks for the information.
