Someone correct me if I'm wrong (don't have to worry about that do we :-})
and I am not positive (haven't looked at the detent on the top of the box
in years), but if I remember correctly, the detent allows for solenoid
actuation when the "gear lever" is anyplace in the 3-4 throw position. In
other words, the solenoid STAYS energized while shifting and is only
de-energized when you move the lever into the neutral or 1-2 gate
positions. Should I go stand in the corner now?
