Washer Jet Fix & Upgrade

[charliesteff]

Hi All,

 

I have a MK1 2000 Galaxy Zetec.

 

My Washer Jets are PANTS! After stripping the pump and pipes I've came to the conclustion that my washer jets are nackered. at the moment I have normal heated washers, But i have heard that the newer Galaxys have "fan" type washers. What I'm trying to find out is:

 

1: Do they have heated Fan type Jets?

2: Will they fit the MK1?

3: Is there a special type of washer fluid to use with fan type jets?

 

Cheers in advance for any replys

I have the same model and a similar problem with the offside washer nozzle producing little more than a dribble.

 

I have cleaned out the system to no benefit. I have redirected the nearside washer so that one jet hits the right hand screen but this will not help with the MOT. The only answer I can see is to restrict the flow to the near side jets in the hope that the offside jet with improve.

 

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
