My windshield WASHERS decided to go tits up.
I dumped about half a gallon of fluid on the ground.
The end I could find didn't make sense for where the fluid was coming out because the reservoir is under the driver's side headlight.
The hose to the sprayers is under the driver's side corner of the windshield.
Holden routed the line under the radiator, up the passenger fender then under the cowl to the driver's side!
The line under the cowl was that motherfuckingcocksuckingratfuck brittle ass nylon shit that GM is in love with for small lines.
Unlike GM Norte America, Holden stuck to a common size for their nylon and it was the same OD as standard 3/16 ID brass.
That means I can use fuel line from the passenger side to the driver's side and since it's low pressure, some 3/16 barbs will connect them without clamps!
And so it is.
Function restored and better than new.
I even took the time to make it pretty.
My Cavalier had the ww pump at the bottom of the fluid bottle, under the intake de-resonator and somehow entangled with it. Both under the battery. The pumps die fast. Put a universal pump in a plastic sandwich box which lasted until the redneck wiring rotted off.
