[s-cars] Windshield Washer

[chris chambers]

I recommend pulling the washer fluid reservoir before ordering parts, it won't take much time.
I've had leaks at both the headlight washer pump and the windshield  sprayer pumps. 
There are grommets that the pumps press into that can fail.

Also I've had the reservoir split and leak at it's bottom.

When my hose failed I replaced it with the "plastic" hose you can buy at
Home Depot & Lowes commonly used for refrigerators and ice makers.

 List-
 
     My windshield washer reservoir seems to
 be leaking.  I'm not sure from 
 where yet, but I want to have all the parts I need in hand
 before I dig 
 in.   It *seems* to be leaking right from the
 pump.   If I order:

     and #'s 20, 21, and 22 from:

     I should have all bases covered, right?
 
     Also, anyone know what diameter hosing is
 used for the windshield 
 washer?  Mine just disintegrated when I was poking
 around.  I'd like to 
 replace the whole length while I'm in there.
 
     Thanks much!
