To start off if the overdrive is engaged you CAN NOT BACK UP. It will =
feel like the brakes are on and eventually damage the inside of the =
planetary gears. So if you can back up the car with no problems it is =
not stuck in overdrive.

When you are operating the lever on the right side of the overdrive are =
you moving it far enough that you are raising the operating rod. If you =
are testing in while running  you will not be able to lift it by hand. =
You will need a pair of pliers to operate by hand.
