^ The torque converter which includes the torque converter clutch mechanism houses the turbine runner, the pump impeller, the stator, and the torque converter clutch piston. The torque converter clutch piston is spline-fitted to the turbine hub. During torque converter clutch engagement, it slides over the turbine hub and is pressed tightly together with the converter cover. A tortion spring is installed in the torque converter clutch piston to absorb engine torque fluction when the torque converter clutch piston is pressed onto the torque converter.
