Why does the rpm rise when I push OD on??
[Scenario]
Your crusing on the freeway...
Your climbing uphill...
You turn off OD...(Autotranny shifts into 3rd...)
You accelerate modestly maybe upto 4500ish rpm...
Still accelerating... you turn on OD...
THEN IT HAPPENS...
Your rpm jumps a few hundered and then shifts into 4th gear.
[End]
My sisters 97 pathy does this too...
Does anyone else have similar issues?
Does anyone know why the car is doing this?
What gives?

It's your torque converter disengaging from the point of locked to unlocked mode.
