Problem with my Suncoast

The Suncoast tranny on my 98 worked flawlessly except for breaking shafts, but thats another story!

Anyway, a problem arised, today before drag races, i went for a test trive, and felt that at around 80 mph the tranny seemed to unlock the TC, and lock up again, and unlock again, on a WOT run ADR on Kill.
Im using a lock up switch from 2nd through the whole run.
It puked out a little oil (breath tube?) but seemed to have enough!

Its a full Suncoast transmission minus intermediate and output shaft!

What should i be looking at? can i still drive the truck?

A new alternator cured the problem,
(I suppose the low volts couldn't hold the Lock up solenoid engaged)

Good to hear it was a simple fix 12valve
I thought the lock up command was a ground?
