Mines a 91, so I'm not sure if it's the same on the newer ones or not... but on mine, it starts with OD on no matter what, and you have to push the button to shut the OD off. Shut it off and restart, and the OD is back on.

see thats what i'm thinkin but i just to make sure. i'm gettin 7MPG in my '91 and i'm tryin to get at least 10 for better mileage. i would like to see 12 to 15. my philosophy is if i'm gonna get 7 mpg why not make it bigger. thanks fur the info though.
