Dash out!!

[beermonster]

Hi chaps and lasses!!

Took my dashboard out last night as my washer jets had stopped working!
Can't beleive how easy it was! Although having said this my hands now look like they have been dragged backwards across course sandpaper!

Anyhow imagine my surprise when I drilled the rivets out for the coverplate behind which the pipe is located to find that the pipes were all connected and no leaks!
Turns out the holes on the pipe on the wiper blades were blocked!!

Doh!!!!

Still never mind a lesson learned that maybe should go in the bible?!?!?!?!

Similar thing happened my mate Pat - complained to his GP that he couldn't pass water - They had his kidneys and bladder out before they discovered he still had a durex on!

I have used clear pipe rather than black between the solid pipe on the wiper and the connection on the car.. you can then see the water flowing around so saves on wondering where a blockage is :-)

The only problem I ever had on mine was the flexible pipe coming off the pump behind the front grille/headlamp, then you get a puddle on the floor of course.
