i wanted to fix my winderscreen washer nozzle as the washers would only spray right on the bottom of the windscreen, it looks like it has a flat screw driver adjustment on the nozzle, i turned it and it turned for a bit but then the nozzle part broke, like when you strip a flat headed screw thats stuck. so now, my washers just spray upwards. a little help please?
You're not meant to turn it. Just direct it up or down!
Go to the dealer (or pm destrukshn) and get a price on the washer nozzle.
D'oh!
lol
when i need to adjust, i just push a pin into it and do it that way...
yups, that's how i do it.Quote:

my nozzles seems to be stuck with something. On the left nozzle everytime i use it, it will only spray at the bottom. Then i let go of the stalk and pulled it again, it will be all good. how weird
Are you using some washer additive? Just add water to dilute it down. Dried washer additive can sometimes form gunk in the nozzle.Quote:

What's wrong with rain water (unless you live under an airport)?Quote:

nah no additive added... i have no idea why this is happening as it only happens after an extended period of time not using the nozzles... weird.Quote:

Yum, you get yummy nutrients from the rotting leaves trapped in the roof gutter too. Hehehhe.Quote:
