Window Washers....

ok, there is something wrong with my window washers.... I just found that the end of the sprayer is messed up.. the previous owner probably put water instead of window washer fluid. Can anyone help me to get it work again?
The problem is that the driver side washer sprays two lines while the passanger side doesnt spray any at all.. I just bought mobil window washer and put the whole thing inside with arrowhead water. It didnt clear is up, I dont know if the thing is clogged or its just not connected right, but it seems as if itis.

I use water in the summer...no harm

just pop the hood, squeeze the tabs together, push the washer though to the outside, fight w/ the hose or cut it (Id cut the bastard). Now take your nozzle and place it in a heavy dishwashing soap and water solution over night.
That should clean it up.
If it doesnt try an acid instead...maybe straight white vinegar.

yes, that would be called a nozzle
yes, cut the tube at the base of the nozzle
you need to remove it from the hood...open it and look, you'll see how to remove them

the other owner may have gotten wax in them, that's happened to me once or twice if you're not careful. I just took a pin and moved it around in there and then scrubbed it with a sponge.

I've never used anything but water in the summer time. It's a waste of money. It's not that.
I've gotten wax in it...BDC is right...CLR will own you!

All I can say at least you have at least one washer nozzle. I don't have any washer nozzles. I have a cf hood and never got holes drilled for them. Im used to not having them.
