A locked torque converter is the same, mechanically, as a fully engaged clutch.
Which stalls the motor under high torque load.
Tell us you didn’t read what I just wrote without telling us you didn’t read it.
The engine will only stall under load if it is at so low of an RPM that it is generating insufficient torque to overcome the inertia. Which if you are moving and in the correct gear for your speed is never.
Which is why your transmission has more than one gear.
Remember back 30 seconds ago when I told you to think? Actually try it this time. Or maybe plug some of your bullshit into Google first before continuing to make a fool of yourself in front of everybody.
Which if you are moving and in the correct gear for your speed is never.
In stop and go traffic it’s practically always. The car needs to be able to handle that, it can’t be rated higher than that situation.
Which is why automatics have torque converters and manuals have clutches. It’s almost like we’ve come full circle or something!
Millions and millions of vehicles are driving on the world’s roads right now, happily tooling along under the sound mechanical and physical principles known as “reality,” completely heedless of your apparent inability to understand it.
