Right. Without the wheels on the ground, the engine has more inertia, so when the OD engages, the output speeds up instead of the input slowing down. Randall == This list supported in part by The Vi

What a challenge to modify the switch. Now you have to come to PA and straighten out this mess of bits and pieces of what is left of the switch. Again only kidding. I took the easy route and just duc

What you have described is exactly what should happen in the configuration you have described (i.e. constant engine speed, wheels in air with no resistance). In this configuration, when OD is switch

I agree here. Someone standing outside the car while you do this would notice the wheels turn more slowly when you engage, yet the engine maintains the same RPM. In real life this would not happen or

Hello all, A question for the OD crowd. I am in the process of testing my OD. Main difference in this test is that the car is up on 4 jack stands and sitting in my garage. Wiring is in test mode. Jum

Could be that it was already in od when you hit the switch and you cut it out ...or you could check those cables <g> Good luck, Mike http://mikek.9online.fr/index.htm I hit the OD switch waiting == T

Maybe you should really do it ? Something is clearly wrong. Engaging the OD should either raise the speedo or lower the tach, even with the rear wheels not touching anything (or the driveshaft disco

Could have been in OD when I started. But in either case it definitely drops in and out as I move the switch up and down. The only problem is the tach is suppose to drop in rpm's not the speedo in mp

May I assume that the OD is working properly and the speedo drops because there is no contact with the floor/road or is this something Mr. Lucas saved just for me? Ales, It seems right to me. The car

OK, here's what we got. Switch lever up. (off) Start car, shift to 4th gear. RPM's = 2000 (just +), speed is 40 mph. Holding the gas pedal constant and engaging switch lever (down), rpm's stay the sa

Not reversed anywhere ... that's normal operation ! As I said before, British switches operate the opposite of what Americans expect If you want to change it (to be wrong, as a DPO did on TS39781LO)

Hi Mike, Well, I was feeling so good about the OD working and with my hair blowing in the wind I took it up to 5000 RPM's and dropped it into OD. Reality set in, the car jumped off the jack stands an
