overdrive issues on manual tranny
i have 2 240s i'm looking at here, a 78 and an 84, both of which have different issues with their overdrive.
the 78 works great in average temps, but in the heat it will slip or disengage from overdrive randomly. i'm wondering if a heavier fluid would help.
the 84 sometimes works great, and sometimes has a significant delay shifting in or out of overdrive. the idiot light responds normally to the switch, leaving me to think the problem is in the tranny or possibly the solenoid.
