basically, my issue in a nutshell is that after driving my car for about 15 minutes or so, it stalls. the stalling only occurs when i am in gear and apply the break to reduce my speed to idle or 0 (for instants, a red light or stop sign). i have read other forums where other people are having identical problems with their sunbirds that mentioned to disconnect the torque converter lock-up switch which should be connected to the solenoid. it was mentioned that this could lower fuel economy, however the car would not stall-which at this point is the most important thing. the problem with that is, i have looked under my car over a hundred times in the last week trying to figure out where that switch is, but it seems hopeless for a guy like me. i look under there and i can only identify a handfull of things. so if someone who speaks lehmans terms could please direct me to this switch, it would be incredibly appreciated. i am stuck between a rock and a hard place!
