C5 vent tube diagram

[r1hatman]

Does anyone know where I can get a diagram of the 83 C5 vent tube diagram? I rebuilt my c5 about 5 months ago and put it in and couldn't get my hand up there to reconnect the vent tube to the nipple that came off the transfer case and it had a nipple cap on it and it ran and shifted fine. I just got my 3' body lift done and reconnected it and now it shifts real late and hard? So I was wondering if I got the tubes right, but there really isn't another one to connect it to here? Any help would be great. At this point if i don't get it, I'm gonna cap it again!

Anyone?

The vent tube has nothing to do with how the tranny shifts. I bet your vacuum modulator is not hooked up - that does affect shifting.
I have my vent tied into the vent for the transfer case and doubler and run up into the engine bay to keep water out. If you dont plan on water crossings, just leave the nipple cap thing on it.

I have a hose running to my modulator from the vacuum tree. The tube I hooked into the nipple that comes off the transfer case comes from the vent tube that runs up from the top of the tranny and back down to the other side?

I was thinking since I lifted it, it could be a bound up kick down lever. I'll check that out next.
