Finally getting around to making my overdrive functional. History: 3-spd OD from Tom Myers in OK, gone through by reputable local shop, governor not functioning so am using a switch instead, solenoid activates, kickdown checks out, freewheels fine, transmission functions fine when locked out of OD. Problem: when dash control is moved to OD position and I let up on accelerator to let it shift up, experience rapid clicking zip kind of sound--a second or so--(sounds terrible, like pulling an old screen-door spring over a screw). Sound abruptly stops but trans does not go into overdrive. Help, please--or am I destined to drive with no OD (not a huge deal as I have 3.31 posi).
