I feel like I read the answer somewhere before but cannot find it with searches.
85 cutlass 3.8/200c. If I drive 30 miles back roads I have no issues. If I drive on the interstate for say 10 miles are so, once I leave the torque converter will stay locked in until a 3/2 downshift is forced (ie near stop or manual shift). Also noticed when it happens applying the brakes will not unlock converter.
All seemed to start after it sat all last summer as a backup car. Prior it was doing 800 miles every week including a 500 mile interstate trip. No issues then.
Where should I start looking?
