That lever DOES NOT engage nor disengage the overdrive! Engagement is done by the solenoid. The lever is a lockout lever. In the forward position (photo #1) it locks the trans in direct drive (the solenoid is blocked from engaging overdrive). In the rear position (photo #2) it allows the solenoid to engage overdrive when energized.
