J Type OD Won't Stay Engaged.

I installed a J-type OD and transmission in my 72 TR6. I have had problems
with it since installation. It leaks about a quart every 200 miles and third
OD doesn't like to stay engaged. It has done both of these things since I
installed it about 6 months ago.

The OD stays engaged in 4th gear, but in 3rd it disengages when I let up on
the gas. It doesn't appear to disengage at any other time. Because it
disengages only in 3rd and only when I let up on the gas I feel that this is
NOT an electrical problem. I am wondering if anyone out there has had
similar problem with a J type or can help me figure out what's wrong the OD.

There is a warranty, and I might end up simply returning the transmission/OD
for an exchange. However, I don't want to go through the hassle of
installing a transmission only to have the same problems again. Not to
mention the expense of returning the thing back to BPNW.

Thanks,
