<< Help! My new overdrive engages immediately, but is reluctant to
disengage. Sometime it takes several minutes for the O/D to disengage,
and when it does it is always very sudden. The O/D will even stay
engaged as I shift down to second and first. Very simple wiring and I
know it is correct and the switches work. I replaced all of the o-rings
when I had it out of the car. Anybody been there, done that???

Lonn,
Are you sure that you have the correct quanity(6 pints) and correct
weight(20w-50) oil in your O/D tranny. Mine is a 1974 model and works very
smoothly..Also, is your transmission ground strap in place and connected to a
body panel that is shiny clean? Paint can insulate a ground.
yours, H4(Howard)
