Re: unclogging washer jets
I've got them but they don't work
I remember Matt saying that they fit the nozzles and pipework to the Tubby but it's not connected to anything?

That was the case on my tubby estate, but my dad's tubby saloon (another exec, made only a few days after mine iirc) does have working headlamp washersteamster1975 wrote:I've got them but they don't work![]()

Dai - thanks for the pics. I'm a "little" too hungover to attack it today, think I'll try to have a go tomorrow

Re: unclogging washer jets
Thanks for asking teamster. She's absolutely gorgeous and fantastic. Treating us to full nights of sleep and lots of smiles, so making the most of these moments while they last.
She also the sole reason we've just changed the 206cc to a 307cc (allthought that excercise started out as a Mondeo!!)
Here she is

Re: unclogging washer jets
She looks really pleased with herself
(and why not)? 
BTW I tried levering out my washer jets last night & they very clearly said, "Leave me alone, or I'm going to break"
I did hear it, honestly.
Cat didn't believe me either

Re: unclogging washer jets
Yep, she's a smiler alright, real good temprement (until she's hungry, then all hell breaks loose intil she gets the bottle)
As for pulling up those jets, I'm not sure how hard it is to pull them up as Dairees yanked mine up!!
I think Dairees gets pleasure out of hearing me say "No Dai, really, I trust what your saying, you don't need to show me. No really, don't. Please"
