<DIV>There is a very very small bleed hole in the operating rod abount 1” below
the ball. When the overdrive is turned off the pressure bleeds off there. If it
is blocked it will be very slow to come out of overdrive. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Remove the plug, spring, plunger and operating rod. Then try blowing out
the the bleed below the check ball.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The other thing that can cause it is if the adjustment of the solenoid is
moving the operating rod to far it will stick in overdrive. Then with a thump on
the rear housing it will come out of overdrive. </DIV>

<DIV
style="FONT-SIZE: small; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Finally
got oil pressure in the rebuilt OD. With the car in 4th it shows
about 500 psi on a gauge.
<DIV>However, I noticed when reattaching the drive shaft that with the
trans in neutral the output won't rotate in the reverse direction.
It rotates easily by hand in the forward direction. This is true
before and after the pressure has been released. Before getting
pressure in the OD it rotated by hand in both directions. I haven't
tried to engage the OD. It's a hard mechanical stop. I'm
afraid the one-directional clutch be engaged and I don't want to break
anything.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I've been a long time gone from this fine place. Life's taken a
lot of twists and turns, but it's good to be getting back to having to
come here for help.</DIV>

<DIV>Thanks and Cheers</DIV>
