Probably not the torque converter. My 99 R/T used to do the exact
same thing, and I too wondered if it was the torque converter, because
that's what it felt like. Then someone suggested it might be a bad
Throttle Position Sensor (TPS). I took a chance and bought one at the
dealer for $40. Took about two minutes to replace. It fixed the
problem. That was about a year ago and the problem has not
resurfaced.
