[[Quick TH400 Question]]

Can anybody lemme know what the hole on top of the passanger side of the tranny is for? Like I said it is a th400.
Whatever was in it is broken off really close to the base of the hole.

Thanks alot man. I looked on a tranny that came out of the car; its just a metric that was behind the v6...it has a hole on the top just like that on the th400 and its just a breather i believe.

Any help would be much appreciated
