Overdrive saves more gas by keeping your cars rpms lower thereby saving gas

Overdrive will use more gas and put the car in a higher set of gears for more performance out of the transmission. Drive will just put the car in a regular set of gears for highway and road performance and save you a little bit of MPG, depending on whether you have a 3.4L V6, LT1, or a 5.7L V8 you'll notice a slight difference in power only out of the V6.

SOURCE: 95 camaro tranny problem

The fluild is suspect as is the compiter controls. Is the check engine lite on ? A bad TPS or air flow meter even if still working can command out of lock up. The fluild is at the right level and is halfway clean? The trans overheating now or in the past can have runied the lockup solinoid or the lock up clutch in the converter. Tranny shops like to rebuild the whole tranny every car as they know thats going to get it and they make more money and have less headaces with broken cars and mad customers. I f the control system cks OK Have your best guess local trusted tranny shop test drive the car and then listen to him say what hes going to do to fix it what hes going to charge and what'll happen if you don't fix it and drive around it. He may say he'll change just the touque converter and cross your fingers that it doesnt **** out too soon

1995 chevy regular cab 4.3l v6 2wd wont go into overdrive

Sounds like it is stuck in second gear. Overdrive only drops rpm by a couple hundred. In third gears you should still be less than 3,000 rpm.

Second gear is a default gear when the transmission is in limp mode. Is the check engine light on? Does it shift if you manual shift through the gears with the gear selector?

When my 95 comero 6 cyl trys to shift in overdrive it shakes shutters i have too continue to accelerate for the car to run rite

common and not good, need to verify whether its going into over drive or the torque convertor locking up which feels like a 5th gear. if its when the torque oncverter locks up then it will need to have the torque converter replaced and the valve body repair/replaced. if its 4th gear then it soounds like yoou got a slipping 2/4 band that needs diaged and repaired.
