When the filter, pump, and solenoid were removed, did you notice a
little, bitty ball bearing that acts as a check valve for the pump
output?? It MUST be there for the O/D to function... pull the assy out
again, and look for the ball bearing, and spring. Might be the problem.

bearing from the used oil from the O/D)
