This will not keep your car from running, when your driving down the road the torque converter is what applys the motors force to the transmission using transmission fluid, the faster the rpm the more force it applys. at highways speeds the two halves of the torque converter will lock together like a manual transmission with the clutch pedal out. this increases fuel economy and reduces transmission heat, you could experience stalling upon stopping but it will not keep your car from driving at all
