I recently replaced my blown transaxle in the 83 944 with a late 85 transaxle.
I have noticed that in 5th gear, I don't get any overdrive.
Is this controlled mechanically in the transaxle, or is it something vacuum controlled by the DME ??
I had robbed some vacuum fittings to fix the 951, and kind of just pieced things together on the 83 later after I swapped the trans in.
Thanks
