If decelerating while the overdrive switches off, there will be a noticeable
"shock" to the driveline as everything drops down to the non overdrive
ratio. Not a healthy action especially for the early overdrives.

Per,

Just a question: what happens if the throttle swiths is not working, and the
overdrive disengages while the propeller shaft if running at higher rpm than
the crankshaft?
