need core torque converter

[Joseph Donnelly]

I'm looking for a core torque converter for my 1990. Non intercooled, non overdrive, non lockup. I want to see if I can improve mileage with a tighter converter. I need something to use as a core so I don't have the truck down for 1-2 weeks.

Most places will send you a TC and you just return the core for a refund. Spend some of that hard earned money for a worthy cause.



Everything I got is too far away and would cost more than the core charge to ship it. You might try a little trading and offer some advertising for free shipping and no core charge? :-laf

If you have one, maybe I could pay you to ship it directly to the company, especially if you don't want much for it. Otherwise I will continue looking closer to the left coast for one.

Who's converter are you going to try?



I will check with my son and see what we have left. We had a couple spares but in the process of both of us moving not sure what made the trip.

I have had excellent results over the years with BD converters. They have one for the early Turbo Diesels that reportedly helps fuel mileage noticeably.

Joe, did you ever change out that torque converter in the '90 D250?
