Re: Overdrive.... Reverse

If you lockout the od manually after use with the dash control you shouldn't have a problem with reverse. If not, you are depending on the plunger rod (from 1st/rev shifter fork)pushing on a spring that pushes the lockout collar fork. If the spring is weak or the lockout collar doesn't move freely due to a gummy buildup on collar you will have a problem. You can disconnect the od cable from the lever on the overdrive and try moving by hand to see if it moves freely. You might also try draining and refilling with fresh lubricant.
