car pulls forward on a stop light
I have a 1989 GTA with a 700R4 and whn I stop I have to put the tranny in Neutral because it feels like it pushing the car anyone knows what I need to adjust?

Sounds like your brakes aren't holding well. Or maybe your torque converter isn't working properly.

any of the above but I've always felt the converters were to tight in these cars.

Re: car pulls forward on a stop light
Thanks Everyone
1. I Just did all the brakes and they hold the car just that I feel that is pushing to hard
2. How can I know if my torque converter is bad?
3. Idle Speed at first I taught of that but I fix the Vacuum hose that was causing the hi Idle an it continues.
So I'm Leaning for the converter now my question is; is this typical of hi performance cars? or is this just a bad Converter?

Re: car pulls forward on a stop light
What is your idle RPM in gear (drive or overdrive)?
