    Not sure if this is the right section or not. I am having problems with the washer fluid "motor" on my 67 Special. The wipers work ok but when I try to spray fluid on the windshield nothing happens. The wipers keep going but no fluid. The tubing is all free and clear of obstructions. I blew air throuh the tubing.. Got bubbles in the washer bottle and could feel the air out the nozzles by the windshield. I thought it might be a fuse out, but I changed all the fuses today and still nothing. Anyone got any ideas?:confused:

    You may simply need a pump rebuild kit. Often this happens when the small rubber check valves get dry and fail to seal well.

    Thank Devon for the response. I am new to "working on cars" so where would I get this rebuild kit and what would it entail doing to fix. Thanks David

    I'd just ask at the local parts store for starters.

    Check with the resto compamies like Cars. They sell whole new repro units.
