If you mean what I think, it is a tube that will connect to the air filter housing coming from the engine. It helps remove any combustable air build up form inside the engine. Simple terms of course.

Why is your Breather tube for the transfer case blowing out transmission fluid in your 1998 Chevy Silverado Z71?

"Why is your Breather tube for the transfer case blowing out transmission fluid in your 1998 Chevy SIlverado Z71?" Check the level of fluid, it is most likely overfilled. Heat will expand the fluids, that's why there is a certain fill point. The breather tube is to let air out from the expansion of fluid, and to let air back in when fluid cools.

Why is there milky foam in your Chevy 350 oil breather?

Check your oil, if it looks the same you may have a blown head gasket. If your oil looks okay you may just have had some water get in it from somewhere else. I found that i had milky residue in my breather and the problem ended up being the carb was forcing air back down the breather tube. When air is forced into a small space it compresses and moisturises. The solution was to take off the breather tube and put a cap or separate breather filter on it.
