1982 Mazda RX 7 three speed automatic

My car used to go and overdrive no problem after changing the stock carburetor to a Holly carburetor. It doesn’t go into overdrive anymore.

Your transmission doesn't have an overdrive gear. What symptoms are you having?

Third gear is not an overdrive gear.

Did you connect the linkage and the vacuum reference?
