My O/D engaged once on the weekend but refused to do so for the rest of the
drive.  It's normally fairly snappy but there's always been the odd time when
there's a couple of seconds delay before it engages, but baring Lucas issues
it always does.





When I crawled under afterwards I confirmed the solenoid is engaging but it
takes a tiny bit of manual pressure on the off-side external arm to get the
O/D to actually kick in, that push seems to be more than the solenoid is
capable of even though it seems to draw the arm up far enough.   Out of
desperation I changed the oil (10w30) but no joy.





Im hesitant to adjust the screw on the solenoid plunger since the range of
motion seems correct, is there anything else somebody can suggest?
