![]() Well I finally got it to idle. As it turns out, I broke my EGR valve because I had to bend it to use it with my kirban fuel pressure regulator. i was able to fix it, and now it idles like a champ. The idle is mean but completely tolerable.
So then I put it in gear and tried to back out of the driveway. My driveway is a 40-45 degree slope up (when you are backing out). I made it about halfway up when the car started to roll forward. I gave it more gas and then the rpms jumped to 3000 and the car wasn't going anywhere. The wheels werent spinning either. When I put the car back in the garage I took out the transmission dipstick and smoke was coming out of the tube. It reeked of burning transmission fluid. Did I toast my torque converter? help.
