If the relay points were stuck, then the gearshift switch should disengage
the O/D whenever you are not in 3rd or 4th.
The only time my O/D has ever failed to disengage, it was because of the oil
I used.  It was Accel brand (Walmart) 30W non-detergent.   This problem was
solved by merely by draining and refilling with a better oil.

my overdrive is always engaged.  i checked the dash switch and it is good.
i am assuming the relay is the problem.  have 
cleaned it up and sanded the points but no joy.  anything else it might be?
