Is your trans a 700r4? Mine is a Muncie sm319 from a 65 truck. Same length as the old 3 OTT, but has a planetary gear set in place of the tailshaft. When functioning properly, the trans is designed to shift in and out of overdrive by itself. I have a plan tomorrow to execute after work so I can hopefully get it to work right

Yeah mine is a 700R4....Luckily for me my brother in law has been building transmissions for 30+ years.....so the cost is cheap...He likes beer...LOL

Good news is you found out the issue and now you can fix it...Im sure once its fixed your mileage will be a lot better
