Transmission and transfer case vent hose

Find a new mechanic, if he isn't in diag.net, iatn, or in pico, snap, topdon(many other web sites) he isn't investing in himself. Not to metion the many of groups on facebook. You shouldn't need to do his leg work. Pico had a library with 1000s of waveforms, same as autonerdz
