- The story of my Volvo Amazon M41 D-type and it's failure.
D-type and J-type Laycock de Normanville Overdrives were used in the Volvos of the 1960s and early 1970s. As well as some Triumph cars of the same vintage.

Oh a back to back upload he feelin SPICY
Awesome infomormation to prevent mishaps
The unidirectional clutch is probably better described as a one-way bearing, and it only comes into play when the overdrive is activated. When the overdrive is deactivated, all of the spinny bits inside are locked together by the overdrive cone clutch and it just adds some spinning mass to the transmission output. Engaged overdrive driven in reverse will toast that one-way bearing, exploding it with enough torque (like in reverse gear). At low speeds the overdrive doesn't engage very solidly and you'll toast the cone clutch, so it's usually locked out in the first few gears.
tldr: put an indicator light on the overdrive solenoid. As long as the solenoid is adjusted properly, the light will warn you if the reverse/low lockout switch isn't working.
Yes, another comment haha. You motivate me to travel, learn more about cars and explore performing arts. Thank you so much!
That's Chris Dodson's turbo B20 wagon! Love that car (and yours, for that matter).
If the solenoid engaged the OD while in reverse, the uni-directional clutch is destroyed. Safety lockout switch for reverse gear not working?
Hey David,
I saw on one your videos (it may be very old) that you had printed a few stickers at home for your white volvo wagon when you first bought it. I'm curious to see how you did that and what your process was for making your own art and stickers. What kind of equipment did you use? Any tips or advice. I'm interested in creating my own art and prints. Awesome videos.

What size tires are you running ?
Why dont you do gearbox swap with welded housing? I have BMW ZF in my volvo. Holds easily 800Nm or torgue. Never had a single problem with running 100hp thru it because it can move a tank.
CzMnHD oh wow i don’t think even the chassis of this car can handle that much power without some added bracing. It’s just a simple cruiser for me, not a hot rod. I’m ok with the zippy 100hp feel
In 740 it is trotected to do so, it will only activate when 4 gead is on
There is line from gearbox to unik read box
nice volvo
