Windscreen washers not working properly.

Used my windscreen washers the other day and this little dribble came out. The solution is simple and doesn't cost a cent. Remove the washer container. It is held on by one bolt at the top. Take out the two pumps. Blow through the hose attached to the pump which is where gunk can build up and block the flow. Reinstall and test. Very simple. Thought I would share.

At one time I had an entire civilization of green slim in the bottom of the container and had to kill off billions to get it working again :-)
