Re: IML: mystery tubing

["Brian" <Rocketman@xxxxxxxxx>]

Now, what you are talking about is the heat tube for an automatic choke.
In the previous question, the tube does not need to be there, it is only to
prevent dripping of the trans fluid, should the tranny get too hot. with or
withoutthe rubber tube, no big deal.
