Hi
That is correct. However, when the accelerator is not depressed the overdrive
will be kept engaged by the overdrive switch in combination with the cutout
switch. Depending on how well, or not well, the cutout switch is adjusted the
cutout can happen with very little or very much depression of the accelerator.
So if the overdrive disengages on acceleration and engages again when the
accelerator is not depressed this is what happens. Disconnect the cables from
the relay and test it with an ohm meter and you will see what I mean.
