Not looking to start it, just bump the engine over.

I know the 700R4 has a lockup converter, is there a way to trigger the lockup, so you can bump the engine?

Clutches will not apply without oil pressure/flow.

What I would do if you just wanna turn the engine is take off the flex plate cover, get a flywheel turner (just search on Google), and move it as much as you want.

Automatic trannies are a right pain in the arse it seems.
