Antifreeze

[MrWest90]

I am in the position at the moment where the jets are blocked on my car as its so cold, and the bottle is full so I can not add any non diluted screen wash to it. Is there any easy way to unblock the jets to add more in without having to siphon it out etc?

[MrWest90]

I know I have headed this topic with anti freeze, I was reading another thread and had it in my head. I meant screen wash

Hairdryer. (I was going to suggest a hot air gun but thought your paintwork may suffer...)

I've often thought this.. Surely just driving the car will unblock them from the heat of the engine on the jets?

It worked, but only after 150 miles of hard driving on Monday!

Hairdryer could be a good idea actually, I may have to whip the Mrs one out I also thought that as well, and the bottle housing the screen wash being next to the engine should surely heat it up a degree or two. I have done a couple of journeys both over 30 mins over the last few days though with no joy.

Ah right.

Get the Mrs hairdrier out

Hot air gun is fine - just be careful with it!

Hairdryer sounds like a good plan. If not perhaps a fan heater?
