It wasn't as noticable untilI had the mod work done. Has anyone tried replacing theconverter? If so did it fix the problem and whatconverter was used.Cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/45927-third-gear-question/#findComment-682950 Share on other sites More sharing options...
