Overdrive problems

Post by tim »

Tom, I will mention this only because some else may have had this problem. I know you've checked it. When I brought my 330GT home 25-26 years ago, the O/D didn't work. You could hear the solenoid click but no O/D. It's amazing what filling both trans and O/D unit will do. There are 2 fill holes and 2 drains; one of them being a large plate brass plate that requires a hook spanner to remove. But then I know you've checked both trans and O/D and it must be something else. tim

Hi Tim,

I actually went and worked on the car some more on Saturday, and have narrowed it down even futher, The plunger inside the selonoid on the overdrive gets jambed inside the magnet. When the selonoid mounts are loose, it works fine, but when I tighten the screws, it stops working. I'm getting closer!

Tom
