four wheel drive low
=========================================================
I know that on my Ford Explorer the automatic transmission shifts into
overdrive around ( 50 miles per hour / 80 kilometers per hour )
Overdrive allowed is the normal position - it actually won't shift into overdrive until the speed is higher
Overdrive is the normally allowed position but it won't shift into overdrive until the speed is fast enough
your clutch packs are cooked
Overdrive is the normally allowed position ( it won't shift into overdrive until the speed is fast enough )
Overdrive is the normally allowed position , but it won't shift into overdrive until the speed is faster such as on the highway / freeway
Overdrive is the normally allowed position , but unless the speed is higher it won't shift into overdrive anyway
If it has overdrive use it! it is a "highway gear" it will make no difference what so ever until you get up to speed then it will shift into overdrive and save you gas!
Same shift pattern as a 9 speed. Youtube has a great video straight from eaton fuller on it that would be better than me typing it.
it controls the overdrive function and shift timing relative to speed
If the overdrive switch is turned off then the car will not go into overdrive. As it is not in overdrive, then it will not downshift out of overdrive as it normally would. It also will not shift to 3rd gear above a certain factory preset speed. Turn th overdrive on and see if it operates normally.
I suppose , if you haven't reached the end of the 1/4 mile strip and have already REDLINED your tach in the previous gear , you would have no choice but to shift into overdrive =)
Overdrive is the normally allowed position ( unless you are going fast enough it won't shift into overdrive anyway , mine happens to shift into overdrive approximately 50 miles per hour / 80 kilometers per hour with my four speed automatic transmission if I'm cruising )
