Replacement washer bottle ..

[Jack Valiant]

Well amongst all the other things I am doing with the car at the moment I had decided to replace and update the standard Ford plastic bottle and separate washer motor.

So I decided to go down the the stainless route supplied by one of the guys advertising here on PH, suitable for the Chim / Griff.

So here is what is going into the car , comes with its own bracket but did have to source the pump to suit which is a standard Ford Capri / Escort item at a few £'s off FleaBay I will update when fitted but it is very good quality and should suit the engine bay.

Don't suppose its a site glass/clear tube to observe how much is in it.
Good looking unit though, would hear the water up pretty quick with amount of heat under engine bay.
I've got a stainless expansion tank on mine and I can't leave my hand on mote many nano seconds once hot,I didn't think of that when I had it made up!

There is no "window" to see the level unfortunately but got to say the quality, finish and welding are great...

Looks nice mate..I will need something for mine as the original will get in the way of the S/C pipes...Ziga


John:
I have seen some with a sight glass/Tube.

I fill mine when it runs out - even though I can see through the side - so why bother?

Looks nice - the pump isn't much "under the level" though so will struggle after it's only 1/2 empty. Assuming the cap is at the top?

The pump neck is not pushed fully home in the pic so it goes down almost to the bottom of the tank with a small filter so will be fine. Capacity is 2 litres so should be sufficient, will keep an eye on the bottle temp though!
