Family album illustration 173-00 shows one pump for headlight
washer. Illustration 172-05 shows same pump for windshield
washer. There's a second pump for the special detergent tank on V8
windshield washer systems. The pump in 173-00 feeds a tee connector to
both the headlight system and the windshield system. I see only one line
coming off the main reservoir in my wife's V8. But I haven't examined it
from the bottom to see if there's a second pump down there.
