There is a switch on my transmission (85 GS) on the passenger side that says in the manual it is the 5th gear switch. What is it for.
I have a replacement trans that doesn't have this switch.
Does it matter?

 

I do not belive so......I think it has something to do with emisions ......the anti after burn valve or something..

 

Good question. I put a tranny from an '83 into my '85 automatic and used the wiring harness from the '83 and it worked fine without any modifications. The '85 is supposed to have a clutch/neutral switch for starting too...

 

That is a pretty obscure question. I think my sisters '84 GS auto had that switch, but I don't remember.
