   <span style=3D"font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12pt;">A pressure test=
 with a gauge from Jay Holekamp is a great idea. While your waiting for its=
 arrival, loosen the clamping bolt and take the car for a ride. Reach acros=
s the transmission and operate the lever manually (the one you put the 3/16=
=E2=80=9D drill into when you adjust the solenoid). If the overdrive kicks =
in, you have a solenoid or solenoid adjustment problem. The overdrives O.K.=
 Better still have a passenger operate the lever, so that you can concentra=
te on your driving. And watch out for that spinning prop shaft. Loose cloth=
ing not allowed.</span>

you have a functioning ammeter and the solenoid is connected on its load si=
