Update on Overdrive checks: Relay and solenoid works, kickdown is new so assume that is working. Next is to check governor.

The overdrive governor contact points can be cleaned after you remove the governor cover. Attached is some information from the Thunderbird Restoration Manual which shows the governor contact points and the centrifugal weights.
