Re: Tranny cooler working too well?

It was about 12 degrees and I was driving along on the freeway at about 80MPH. The RPMs were reading about 3700. I believe that means that the torque converter wasn't locking up.

This is the first winter with the cooler installed.

That's a very good possibility, Doug. That's why greater GVW coolers are not always a good idea. Best idea is to get one closer to the weight of your car.
