Washer jets

Russp · 27th May 2019, 16:54

Anyone know of an alternative washer jet that fits our cars?
I'm after the type that soaks the screen rather than two jets, my ZR has been fitted with a pair but not sure what they are off but they are so much better

Maybe your pump & filter need cleaning

Oh that's a relief, the pressure from the jets isn't actually that bad.
Does a clean of the system normally improve things?

You need the filter out mate, pull the pump upwards then grasp the rubber filter with a pair of long nosed pliers and pull upwards, give it a good clean then flush the tank out before refitting.

Took pump off today there didn't seem to be much dirt in there but what little there was must have hindered performance as they are now working much better
