Ummmm, you may destroy your overdrive unit. I had the same idea about 6 years ago when I disabled the OD lockout switch on my Scimitar, which effectively gave me 8 forward gears. I than wondered why

Gerry tells us: Someone else pointed out the danger of using OD in too low a gear. Perhaps one should avoid using the OD in 1st or 2nd even if it can be engaged. On the other hand, it certainly is ea

Seems as if I have been doing a *bad* thing to my spit with the "J" unit... The OD sticks either on or off, depending on what the switch says- for instance: put the OD in, (hopefully it engages), an

Greg, I suspect leaving you OD engaged all the time is a poor idea. THe workshop manual for the OD I have says having it engaged while moving in reverse gear is extreamly bad for its health & continu

Well, reverse isn't a problem for me... It is much like a motorcycle in this respect; I use my feet to back up! A couple of years back I pulled the motor and trans, and while I had the trans on the

About Greg Tobin's OD, you might check that you have enough tranny oil. Or that it is the right type. Drain it and refill it with the right stuff, CASTROL whatever, as specified in the books. One rea

I agree that the Laycock overdrive is a work of art. It is exactly that work of art that makes it very expensive to fix if you screw one up. Most likely the OD that is sticking needs a good cleaning

Overdrives take exactly what the manual sys it does. Mine takes regular engine oil. They caution against adding special slippery additives. Could be your solinoid is stuck, but perhaps you may have
