Question:

NEW TORQUE CONVERTER installed and it locks up part of the time and not part of the time?

if i turn engine off then back on it will lock up , then it will start to slip, then nothing in forward or reverse, shut it down and restart and its fine , but only for a minute, help

Answer:

Thick white smoke from the exhaust is either burning oil or steam from a bad head gasket. There is no silicon IN the engine, so where it really was needs to be clarified- possibly used in place of a gasket, but where- possibly on the valve cover where a gasket should be used instead. But, that would not explain the smoke. If you used silicon INSTEAD of a proper head gasket, the car will never be right until the head gasket is replaced and properly torqued and that is IF the head isn't warped or cracked. I would not be surprised if the head was warped, because it doesn't seem like any work done on this engine was done right and that whoever did any work on this engine had little idea how to do the job. The oil IN the spark plugs- I don't know what you mean. Spark plugs are not like bottles that can contain anything. They are installed in deep well-like configurations on the valve cover and into the cylinder head and the seal between the head and valve cover must be maintained by a gasket that retains the oil from coming up into the space the spark plug occupies, but you said it a different way that might not be what I said. Oil in that spot would not burn in the combustion chamber and make smoke out the exhaust. Your engine has many things wrong. Get a real mechanic to fix it. I suspect valve seal problems- the engine needs to be rebuilt. Good luck.
it pretty much provides everything. limos, hair , make up etc etc Hope you have a great time at your ball! :D
