Trans out...what is this thing?
I am in the process of replacing the clutch in my GTA project car (first clutch job for me). I just pulled the tranny out and there is a tube (thin, white in a black casing) running from the top passenger side of the trans and at the point the trans bolts to the bellhousing it takes a 45 degree turn upwards. There appears to be some sort of cap at the end. It's definately more of a tube than a cable. What is this? Did I miss disconnecting it? What does it connect to (if anything)? I searched around above the bellhousing and can't see anything this tube would connect to. Thanks folks.

yup its the vent and the reason for being so hight is to avoid water getting into the transmission.
