I'm changing a power steering line that had a pin-sized hole in it. In the process of putting everything back together but i had a line come out and i dont know where it goes. embarrassing but i cant find it in my tsrm or haynes. it's just says remove it for certain procedures but nowhere says where it is or where it goes to....?!?

where does the small line that is under the acordian hose go to?!?!
i cant find where it connects to.... please bump not much sun left. directly on the underside of the accordian there is a line fitting that has a small line that goes somewhere....WHERE? I assume it's for PCV but have no idea where it could go.

The small nipple on the bottom of the accordion hose goes to the vsv on top of the ps pump.

As stated above from hvyman, it goes down to a vacuum valve on the top of the power steering pump. There are two lines connected to the power steering vsv, one goes to bottom side of accordion and the other goes to the metal bypass line that goes around front of motor and connects to the main vacuum distribution line under the front area of the plenum. See bottom LH corner of diagram below...

Arms don't have to be long at all. Just remove 6 vital parts of your motor, and it will then be in plain site. While you are at it, if you are turbo, throw that pain in the ass power steering reservoir in the garbage, and buy a N/A res. with hoses. If you don't you will live a long Supra life of hating that damn thing. Every single thing you need to ever do, you have to take it off. The N/A mounts to the firewall, and it stays out of the way.
