<p>it's a ~20 amp to engage, then when the core bottoms out it
switches to a 5-8 amp holding coil to keep it in place.</p>

pressure test with a gauge from Jay Holekamp is a great
idea. While your waiting for its arrival, loosen the
clamping bolt and take the car for a ride. Reach across
the transmission and operate the lever manually (the one
you put the 3/16” drill into when you adjust the
solenoid). If the overdrive kicks in, you have a solenoid
or solenoid adjustment problem. The overdrives O.K. Better
still have a passenger operate the lever, so that you can
concentrate on your driving. And watch out for that
spinning prop shaft. Loose clothing not allowed.</span> </div>

way, if you have a functioning ammeter and the solenoid is
connected on its load side, you can observe the operation
of the solenoid on the meter. </span> </div>
