Where does this stuff go?
 
Creative title, I know. I'm having a lot of trouble finding out where some of these loose odds and ends go. The previous owner obviously didn't care about the car. It's a 97 Pontiac Trans Am Lt1 with a T56

Is this hvac tee hooked up correctly? Top goes to the intake manifold, bottom goes god knows where, and the straight section goes towards the dash. If I pull the bottom line, there is suction through the tee.

Does anyone know what this hard line is? It goes into the harness and then idk where from there. It's not hooked up to anything.

This one, I probably don't need a picture for, but is there supposed to be a relay in this open spot?

This last one, is on the driver side by the brake booster. Honestly I don't know what the little reservoir is, but there's a melted hardline floating around behind it. Anyone know what it goes to?

That's the check valve for the HVAC system and everything appears to be plugged in correctly. If you don't have air through your dash vents then your check valve might be rotted and needs to be replaced. If you do, leave it alone.

That's your clutch hydraulic system reservoir and it's filled with DOT3. It normally should slide into a bracket and mount with one plastic screw.

If someone could post the pictures of these parts on their cars it would help a ton.

your first pic looks good i wouldnt mess with it

now the second pic... the only thing i can think of that line being would be the washer fluid. does yours work?

third pic looks good both my camaros had an open spot there

and the forth pic looks good thats exactly how the clutch res should be mounted. as for the line there im thinking evap? give it a good wiggle (not to hard dont want to break it) just to see if its really not connected to anything

ive had the engine out of my Z twice and dont remember any vac lines over on that side of the engine

Thank you for the reply.
My washer fluid doesn't come out when I hold the switch, I assumed the motor was bad. I will definitely look into that.
