The other day I noticed a pool of washer fluid under The Beast.
The problem was the fill neck had come out most of the way of the reservoir. The tube was in the mouth of the tank, but the o-rings weren't. So if you filled the tank, once the level got to the bottom of the tube, it just poured out.
Slipping the neck in all the way, seemed simple, but I couldn't quite get the angle on it.
To get a clear line of sight meant taking the driver's side headlight out. To get that out you have to remove the bumper... Nothing complicated, but enough of a chore that my inherent laziness prevented me from overcoming "start project" inertia.
While looking at it again, I wondered if I could get the angle with the neck removed from its bracket.
The answer is, "YES!"
There's no guarantee that it won't still leak, but it's got a better chance than just the tip in the hole with both o-rings outside.
