Me ol' '74-6 took me from NC to Seattle, LA, TX, and back without a whimper
last Summer.

However, over the past few months, I've been experiencing some strange
overdrive-related symptoms.
1. Long after it's warmed up (dunno if significant), it won't shift out of OD
in either 3rd or 4th. Not always.
2. While OD is selected and accelerating in 2nd, it shudders. If I go back to
first and unselect OD, things go fine.

Could it beeee 
a) Fluid level? Too lazy to check that, yet. (maqana)
b) OD solenoid?
c) Gear-position switch(es)?
d) OD switch? It was replaced 2-yrs ago.
e) *gulp* Something really bad?

Just lookin' for a starting place.
