Overdrive does not work above 4000 feet altitude, according to the owners manual and my experience. How can I modify the overdrive so that it does work above 4000 feet altitude?

On long flat roads above 4000 feet, I have to keep speed 40-50 to not race the engine. Here the engine has plenty of power to run 60 mph without taxing either the engine or the transmission.

You CANT !!!!! It's a limit built into the ECU
Buy a FORD for more power.

You don't have enough power at that altitude to engage an overdrive. The R22e engine is a four banger. Even if you did over ride the controls you would be unhappy with the lack of performance.
