Crazy Windshield Washer Reservoir

Post by lloyd70cs »

Anybody replaced their reservoir and struggled to install the pump in the bottom hole? I must not be very imaginative. Having a hard time finding a tool that fits through the refill hole to tighten the filter onto the pump. :? With a little :x

Well I got it figured out, with a lot of frustration mind you. I put the rubber seal on the reservoir, the pump through the bottom hole and then with a long shaft screw driver got the plastic washer on the inside on. Then I put a screw into the top of the filter and used a screw driver to get the threading started. After that I used a 22mm long handled wrench to get it on tight. The wrench was a bit tight getting it in the fill hole but I got it finally without damage to the cap area. So far no drips!
