[Supras] PS reservoir lines?

[Walker, Brian (Rich. Dist)]

Thanks Don, if I can't get them to find the OEM part at a reasonable
price I'll make my own line too. The return line you mention was the
only one they had listed and it was ~$14, the only other line listed is
more like $200. Either way it's good to know as I carry extra hose to
the track just in case.

Don't Toyota's name for it, but it is a single non-pressure hose from
reservoir to pump.  There is a second, smaller hose that is the return
from the rack to the reservoir, IIRC - this one sticks out of the side
with a 90 degree tube built into the reservoir.

Obviously it must withstand ATF fluid - the size is pretty common 5/8"
or 3/4" - I found some oil-resistant hose at napa that fit and hasn't
failed (yet).

Does anyone know the technical name of the lager line from the PS fluid
reservoir? I've checked on the parts catalog and it lists the 'return
line' which I suspected would be the larger dia. line but instead was
the smaller line. They also list a 'high pressure line' but I was
assuming these went from the pump to the rack. I've had a small leak for
sometime where PS fluid will spray onto the area beneath the PS
reservoir, it appears to be coming from the larger line from the
reservoir (possibly near the connection as the hose is older and
brittle) Is there a single line from the reservoir to the pump? It
doesn't seem that it could be a high pressure line as it is held with a
spring clamp.

Thanks for any help,
Brian
