On this PowerNation Extra, the Engine Power team goes over what’s inside a torque converter, how it works, and explains how it’s not magic that determines the right converter for your ride. If you break it down, a torque converter’s job is to transfer the power of the engine into an automatic transmission. Transmission fluid that’s inside the converter are driven by precisely made fins, that are in the converter housing, or pump. Check out the video for the rest of the in-depth explanation.

Simple and direct imformation 💪 great work guys
So… the only component that can fail is the one way clutch of the stator?
Do old 1970s torque converters have stators too? I have a Mercedes 250 1972, which drives fine while the cold engine when getting hot drives fine except at stop signs likely the torque converter is locked and the engine wants to die because tranny is engaged. I have to rise RPM to not die. wondering if TC can be locked. Thank you.
torque converter "essentially a device that converts fluid movement to gear moverment… and automatically manages it (kind sorta)
That guy seemed to have trouble talking without moving his finger. If he lost his finger could he talk?
Ok but how does trans fluid get in and out of it?
So after tha stater where does the fuild goes to any who nice video
I think Pat needs a couple more pens and pencils in his pocket…6 just isn't enough. Great video though!!
