is this an electrical cable or hose connected to transmission?
Bought a 93 4.0L Ranger. It needs some work! Hot oil destroyed this line circled in red. It looks like a hose or an electrical wire. It is connected to the transmission close to the front diff. On the other side of the picture you can see the oil filter .
MY best guess is this is an electrical cable that grounds the battery to the chassis? IF so can i just crimp a new terminal on an mount it somewhere else? Not sure but is the cylinder above it the starter? does it need the ground located close by? I dont think ill be able to keep hot oil from spitting out in this area anytime soon so i would like to relocate it. Thanks!
If it is in fact a hose, what is it?
