If you look at the tranny, right in the middle toward the front, there is a metal tube about 1" tall and 1/4" dia sticking up. Is this some sort of vent tube or is it for a dip stick? Not sure if I should leave it open...

thanks

#7737 Yeah, its just a vent tube. If your input shaft seal goes bad you'll leak fluid out of it. :thumb:

#7782 There is a 17mm bolt just a few inches above the drain plug that you feed fluid in through. Once it starts leaking out your done.
