RE: Windshield washer jet

This happened to me and it turned out to be clogged jets on the hood

There is a small check valve on my 87 5K that cause a similar problem

Robert and Mark,
Thanks for your replies....
While I did not mention it in my previous mail, I did attempt to use a pin to dislodge whatever may be plugging the jet. There does appear to be some resistance, as the pin does not go in as far as it does on the unclogged side. Again, fluid is getting to the jet, which I confirmed by removing the hose at the jet.... So I guess I'm looking for help in disassembling the jet from the hood in order to get a better look at what is clogging it.
