driving problem

ok so when i put the torqe converter back in my car fluid came out of itand now my car struggles to get to 20 mph(drove it back home from exhaust shop) and i was wondering if i have to take the motor back out to fill the torqe converter or should i fill the trans.. both trans dipsticks say full so i dont know what to do and i really dont feel like pulling the engine back out a 5th time.. anyone?

you need to fill the converter till its half full. so you need to take the engine out agian.
sorry for the bad news

now it wont idle and its throwing a check engine light..... ive just about had it with this car.....its one problem after another

[decke48]

well if you got a scanner throw up the code and ill see what i can think of. im thinking IACS or IAC

whats that? i checked all my intake hoses and all electrical nothing is loose

i dont have a scanner. i really got boned in the ass at the dealer i bought this car from.. it ran for one month then blew up.

ok back to the converter... can i use gravity to get the fluid in the trans to goto the converter? my buddy brought it up and it didnt seem to be a half bad idea. get my car on a steep incline backwards and let the motor run in neutral then give a few good revs and see if i can drive again.ive got nothing to lose now so should i try it or should i pull the motor out and fill the converter?
