I don't have an overdrive, but my '72 TR6 also pops out of 3rd on
deceleration (more easily than Mike's, though--it doesn't take as much RPM
to do it. Rolling is just about enough...)

And if it does require a rebuild, what specifically am I looking for? My
box has been rebuilt twice in the past 3k miles, and this behavior began
after the second rebuild. The parts are almost entirely shiny-new.
If you have a response, please include me on your Cc list.
