wiper sprayer is weak

[SJ]

As I recall, there is only one pump(mounted on the fluid tank).
Rubber tube from pump to a T
T to the 2 sprayer nozzles.

The fittings on the sprayer nozzles are plastic - old and fragile - handle
with care. BTDT

I would disconnect the hose at the nozzle . .carefully. It may pay to cut it
off gently with a razor knife and install all new hoses.
Once the hose is off, blow air into the nozzle end to clear out any debris
stuck in the nozzle itself (Reverse Flush).
Use air compressor with that trigger operated air gun . . with pointy end
and rubber tipped.
