    well is it a auto box.....?
    just checking....

    and it dont matter if its a manual or auto if it does not have the right amount of oil it wont run correctly...

    i guessing its a auto....and if its oil level is not 100% not only wont it work but you can damage the tranny...
    if you left it all connected...and never drained it...
    and shoved in a rage and sealed off the drive tial shaft...good...

    its been some time since i pulled out a auto tranny...i have to have a look at a spare vn auto i got in the shed...
    or check the workshop book...on the vt....

    I think the hose you a talking about is a breather hose and doesn't connect to anything.
