Fred, the solenoid will stay engaged when the switch is turned off until you accelerate beyond about 1? of pedal movement. The bolts on the overdrive adjustment are 7/16 or a 1/4 British which are al

Fred, I don?t fully understand the issue. My experience with OD?s is that the lever could be misadjusted if it lines up with the hole. Counter intuitive I know, but parts wear. That said, when drivin

Fred, it seems that you have tried everything and I can understand your frustrations. Without seeing the solenoid/lever connection, I would suggest that the lever may be too tight to the solenoid cor

The operating through shaft is supposed to have about 10 thou end float to stop binding at either end. Perhaps try increasing this a touch as this might be causing it to hang up ? rg Fred, it seems t
