Hi all
As the title, bottle full and I can hear the motor running but no water out of the jets. After a couple of minutes water appears from the nearside front wheel arch near the outrigger? Anyone know where the pipework runs and how to get to it?

Cheers

Thanks Pete, I found the problem, pipe had a hole in it in the inner wing area, had to cut the pipe in the footwell and connect a lenghth of new pipe to the end of the old pipe and then carefully pull the old pipe from the bottle end (after taking off the front grille) pulling the new pipe with it. Luckily all went well but if the pipes had become disconnected whilst I was pulling them through god only knows what you would do? propoably have to cut a hole in the inner wing behind the wheel?

Had the dash off but I don't have an access panel to get to the pipes behind the dash, mines a 1995 car so maybe the access panel was added to later cars
