Re: 200q winshield washer nozzles

["Don & Lori" <dell@pangea.ca>]

hi Fred

did not have much luck with this.  boot is on fine.  the line pumps lots
of fluid when i disconnect it.  just won't push it through the nozzle
with any force.  spent a good deal of time trying to remove the
nozzle from the hood, so i could bring in the house and flush out.
but just couldn't get it out.  decided to concentrate on my alternator
problem.

anyone know how to pull the heated insert out of the nozzle?

+AD4-Hi Don+ADs-
+AD4-
+AD4-    The nozzle could be plugged, but the washer hose on the drivers side is
+AD4-notorious for backing out of the rubber at the nozzle just enough so it
+AD4-looks connected, but leaks enough to drop the pressure at the nozzle to a
+AD4-drizzle. A telltale clue is a puddle of WW antifreeze on the plenum cover.
