Which makes me ask - what is the consensus on whether to declutch
on shifting the o/d in or out? I confess that I no longer
bother but I'm careful not to be accelerating or deccelerating too
hard when I switch it in or out. I used to always declutch when I
shifted the o/d on my MGB, so I guess you could say I'm taking
an average ....
Any ideas?

PS: I've just realised that Chris was talking about careful shifts in general
to minimise the chance of the o/d filter clogging ...
