WINDSHIELD
WASHERS
GENERAL INFORMATION
All models
are
equipped with electric operated
windshield washer pumps. The electric pump assembly
is
mounted directly
to
the reservoir.
A
permanently lubricated sealed motor is coupled
to a
rotor type pump. Fluid, gravity
fed
from
the
reservoir,
is
forced
by the
pump through rubber hoses
to the
nozzles which direct
the
streams
to
the
windshield. These vehicles
are
equipped with special plastic
washer nozzles
(Fig. 1).
Because they
are
inserted
di
rectly into
the
cowl panel, there
is no
adjustment
re
quired.
