Torque Converter Confusion

I just installed a P.I. torque converter in my truck, and now I have 4 reverse gears and one forward. Is there any chance I might have installed the converter backwards?

Very possible. That converter goes in 5 different ways. Now go make a top speed run in reverse. -Mat-

It's just your engine running backwards!

swap your positive and negative battery cables and you'll be good to go

If that doesn't work, just put headlight bulbs in your taillights.

HI!... It could be :

= your blinker fluid is low

= your muffler bearing is seized

= you left a left handed screwdriver under the hood

= your flux capacitor has a seized bearing and you need to spray it with blinker fluid while trying to spin it with a left handed screw driver.
