Torque Converter Replacement

[Lilyofthevalley]

So I know I need to replace my torque converter on my 97 Galant. I just called Autozone and they have two types the 14 bolt and the 15 bolt. Unfortunately my car is that the garage and I have no way of finding out with one I need until Monday. I was wondering if you guys might be able to help me with that so I can get the part ordered sooner. Thanks.

I don't know what that mean. The torque converter bolts onto the flex plate with 3 bolts and the flex plate has 7 bolts holding it to the crank. Find a good working used one so you have the right part

probably the number of drain pan bolts?!

But we all had the same auto trannies besides the 1994 GS automatic

Here is what the Autozone website says about that two they have:

I'm really not a car person and don't know what any of it means. I just wondered if I could figure out which one is right without my mechanic taking the car apart.
Thanks.

they do go by the transmission pan bolts.you just have to count how many you have and you should be good.
