Where does the tube go? I can see the end of a hose looking from underneath on the passenger side. At first I thought ..."well its a vent tube"... but it looked like it was broken. Upon futher research I realize its supposed to route forward. Does it route into the EVAP system? Im hoping that getting it hooked up again will solve this leak.

Any time I want
Its located above the encoder motor.. if its leaking from there you may have a leaking T/C input shaft seal allowing transmission fluid to enter the T/C

I found out it's a pump rub. I had taken it to a friend that has a repair shop and he couldn't see a pinhole, so I assumed the leak was from the hose. It didnt make sense, so I got 'dirty' and cold,to see for myself. Sure enough there it was, only its the size of a BB now. I know what to fix now, and thats a releif. Thanks for your imput. I'll Probably get a re-manufactured unit with the pump upgrade.
I was thimking about re placing all the U-joints and the front Diff seal also. Would you have any suggestions about other stuff to address while I'm renewing this train? Thanks.

The transmission output shaft.. the rear differential pinion seal.. transmission mount.. and make sure they lube that slip yoke real good with some silicone grease on the front and rear drive shafts
