The 93 pearl had a brittle and broken black line(broke when you  
touched it)....and the rubber fittings were also toast.....I found  
some stiff polyethylene tubing that was the exact diameter.  5-speed  
when I got it, was missing one of the "nozzles" for the headlights so  
when I pulled the arm back, it squirted straight out...After touching  
the black line, one of the rubber pieces also fell apart.....If it  
isn't frozen/connector, then if I was putting in a new pump, I'd  
probably replace the lines/rubber connectors while I was at it, as  
I'm going to guess they are as brittle as the rest of them.....I've  
got a bottle of "Glass Gleam-4 concentrate (professional window  
squeegee liquid) and a quart makes 125 gallons of wash fluid.  I put  
it in the car in the summer, and have added a bit of Alcohol and it's  
never frozen in the winter.....Tom
