Well unfortunately i don't have any pictures for this one but i can describe it pretty good.....it's actually a hose/wire the comes from the driver's side firewall and goes to the rear of the transmission....can anybody tell me what this is?...and it also has a pretty good sized burn in it due to the exhaust....will that effect it any? thanks again guys....you're the best.

If the cars a stick, maybe the clutch cable. Or even the speedo cable. Either way, I'd replace them if they are burnt very badly.
