Yes the solenoids can cause all sorts of problems.
Around the time you last worked on your overdrive OD Spares were having
problems with a batch of solenoid as I recall. May want to check with them.
If the "pull" coil or points in the solenoid have burned out, usually
because the adjustment is done incorrectly,  the hold coil will have
insufficient power to move the solenoid armature to the "engaged" position
consistently.
After you have confirmed that the vehicle clutch ( the one on the flywheel)
isn't slipping it's time to move onto checking the overdrive.
You can eliminate the possibility of problems within the unit by manually
engaging overdrive by pulling up on the setting arm while on a road test
with the tunnel off (don't get caught up in the driveshaft because they
will probably have to put you into the coffin in pieces).
If there is no evidence of your "slipping " issue when the unit is manually
engaged then start looking into operating issues.
Haven't we been through this before?
