Can anyone explain to me whats the purpose of these parts and how they work and do they have anything to do with idle?:coo:

On switch pitch equipped cars, those parts control stall speed. The torque converter is in high stall at idle, low stall off idle, and back to high stall at throttle openings above 60%. The stator detent switch also downshifts the transmission at full throttle (passing gear). The higher stall at idle makes for a smoother idle, and higher torque multiplication at larger throttle openings.
I guess my biggest issue is that i have no idea what I'm looking for. Got any pictures or leads of what it looks like?
