The Transmission catch can is a Must for Automatic cars. Our automatics have a vent tube that runs from the rear of the trans to the top of the bellhousing. When Line pressure is increased in the tunes (for firmer shifting) the trans gets a bit hotter and "vents" some trans fluid out the tube. I first noticed this on my 05 when taking it to the track and then parking it in the garage at night. I would have a small spot of trans fluid on the floor. I took that trans out 4-5 times thinking it was the front pump seal or something. Finally figured it was "venting" trans fluid out of it. Since you can't add any without one of the bigger trans pans (that hang WAY low) or going to the ford dealer to get it filled, we came up with a "catch" can with a hose to run down to the vent.
Now the fluid "vents" up the hose and it gather'd in the catch can. Once the trans cools off, it drains back into the trans. We added a small vent cap on the catch can to add fluid as well.

Here are a few pictures of the can and the trans.

Here is a picture of the transmission. Notice the rubber line running from the back to the top of the bell Housing. That is venting fluid into the bellhousing under hard acceleration.


Here is a picture of the entire kit.


Here is a picture of the can mounted nest to the battery on the firewall.



Hope this helps you.

Ok send me a link to that.
