So continuation of my search for OD problem answers.today I jacked up the rear.  put it in  3rd, rev'ed up pretty good---flipped the OD sw---did not engage-----solenoid moving the arm up and down beautifully.  Removed the solonoid piston---ran it up in 3rd--manually moved the arm into 
OD position---did not go into OD.So--OD does not engage---by this testing method I'm not sure if it is still IN OD or not-----last time I drove it is WAS in 
OD all the time---whether I flipped the switch or not.So--------ASSUMING it is in OD all the time regardless of where the switch is--wouldn't that say that it is not a pressure problem??  If not, what could that mean?ASSUMING is was NOT in OD as I was testing it, and wouldn't go into OD, could that mean a pressure problem?With me moving the arm manually and not getting any reaction would that rule out a solenoid arm adjustment as the problem?I'm still leaning toward a pressure problem---caused by----?????  
Guess next I'll try to do a pressure ck.  Steve---------if you would, please send the equipment.  ThanksAppreciate all comments/advice.ThanksTomPS---before I had the unit rebuilt, it operated beautifully---and I had Red Line MTL oil in it.  I'm thinking of dumping the 30w ND and adding MTL------wishful thinking probably.
