I believe Neons have a battery tray temperature sensor, used to more accurately gauge battery charge as a function of temperature.

The tube is a battery vent to get fresh air and the other is your battery temp sensor as stated.

so this isnt going to screw anything up then....and i can remove all that and make a ram air to go in place of it?

did you get a check engine light by cutting the sensor , or no?

You won't get a CEL, but your battery light may pop on.
