A defective thermostat can cause the engine to overheat. It can also cause the engine to not reach full operating temperature if the thermostat is stuck open. It is possible this could set the check engine light.

What would cause a Chevy 305 to idle in park but jerk and die when you put it in gear?
There are a couple possibilities. First, the lockup torque converter could be stuck. It could be as simple as a faulty relay or it could be the torque converter itself. Second, it could be that the engine is not producing enough power to keep running when it's put into gear. For example, it could be idling fast because of a vacuum leak, but not really producing much power. When the transmission is engaged it could put enough power demands on the engine that it can't keep going.

Where is the lock up solenoid on a axn4 transmission it is not getting a signal and it will not shift in to over drive?
The lockup solenoid does not control OD shift. The lockup solenoid controls torque convertor lockup. Torque converter lockup isn't a gear at all, but a fuel saving function that kicks in when you are cruising, which is a clutch in the torque converter that locks down and overrides the fluid coupling so you dont loose engine engine torque due to the normal fluid coupling of the torque converter. In effect, it overrides the torque converter completely, and provides a direct drive from the engine to the input shaft of the transmission. TC lockup does occur in OD, but it is a separate function. OD is achieved in the AX4N when the OD band holds the front planetary sun gear stationary. This is done by the OD servo and piston assembly, when fluid is directed there through a valve in the valve body. You could have a problem in any of those areas causing you not to have OD.
