What speed does are torque converter lock (full lock, partial lock, unlocked)

I've been getting a weird hesitation while cruising at any MPH around 2,000 rpms. Seems to happen in 4th and 5th gear. At first I thought it was my fuel pressure problems, but they have been resolved and twice today I felt the odd hesitation. It is a very subtle feeling, only I could feel it through the gas pedal and the steering wheel. I'm sure a passenger wouldn't be able to. I gave it a little gas when it happened and it felt as if the car wasing increasing in revs at all.

Thanks

our, not are.

And if it isn't increasing in revs when you give it throttle, its not the trans. Torque converters locking up are quite uncommon. Most just have the trans slip and jerk.

Wait, when you gave it gas did the revs increase but the car stayed the same? Or did nothing happen?

Seemed like nothing happened. I didn't put the throttle to the floor, I just gave it a little more pressure.
