Before you replace the converter, may be worth checking the vacuum lines first as that’s what controls the converter
Thanks for the info. Have found one close to me I'll collect later today, car is going to mechanic tomorrow so will most probably leave it to him to change it. Any idea where vacuum lines are running around so I can maybe take a look? are they all in awkward positions just like this valve or are they easy to see in the bay? Thanks
