He is correct though. You the computer controls OD on and you will not
shift into OD till some where past 35 or it may be 35. Any sooner and its
basically a waste, RPMs drop to low.

Are you sure that you are talking about the lock up TC or the "OD" 4th gear
in the transmission... it will shift into OD at any time after start up, but

NOT lock up the TC.... at least thats how mine works, that last and final
drop of about 200RPMs after it (the tranny fluid) has warmed up is not 4th
(OD) gear, but the TC locking up.
