I've noticed that this sensor is only on the Auto FC's so therefore must have something to do with the Auto tranny...but the question is what do it do!!

It's a vacuum switch. It ensures the torque convertor lock-up only comes on at low load (high manifold vacuum).

It won't do anything without the stock airbox.
