| Torque converter, location | The torque converter is rigidly bolted to the driven plate in the torque converter housing. | ||
| Torque converter, task | When the vehicle is stationary and at idle speed it reduces the power flow between the engine and automatic transmission to a minimum; when starting off it serves engine torque multiplication and continuous rpm/torque adjustment. | ||
| Torque converter, design | The impeller (4) is connected to the engine and the turbine wheel (2) to the transmission input shaft. The stator (3) is connected to the transmission housing via a freewheel and stator shaft (8). | ||
