CBS,
That's a good question. The small line assembly was added to the 1986 model year and newer (Courtesy of Jon from an earlier post) and it's purpose was to "collect condensation and drain it away so it doesn't drip down the firewall into the footwell." It's extremely difficult to inspect it without removing a lot of stuff under the right side dash. It is my understanding that it is attached under the evaporator. The large drain captures the majority of the water and dispenses with it, and the small one just collects the condensation, but has a small capacity, and if the large drain is blocked it dispenses the water into the frontpassenger footwell. This is all a lot more complicated than I had expected, but I think we're on to something!
