What is the best way to flush out a converter. I found metal shavings in the fluid.
Thanks Butch

Some of the better trans shop will have a automated converter flushing machine Be prepared to pay $30.00+ for it, call all of them that you can ask about that and the price I just went thruogh that, converter broke the thrust bearing race and ended up making a lot of metal and noise, it was not repairable. I thought it was the trans so I switch the converter into the back up trans you might want to have it cut open by a competent shop and have them(watch if you can ) inspect it thoroughly

The convertor company I am using here,offers a $99.00 freshen up service,cuts them apart cleans them ,replaces bearings,and welds them back together.I can get his number if you are interested.
Thats funny, I called a shop around here about doing that and they were confused about the whole process, I didnt take my converter there by the way.
