Windshield washer replacement

Found out in Utah you have to have one of these that works. Mine has juice just no sucking. Should I go with the OEM or is there an after market that is better? I hate safety guys that actually look for safety problems, They need to just take a donut break when we bring in old cars.

Re: Windshield washer replacement

What year is your truck? Is it mounted to the wiper motor or in the washer reservoir?

Re: Windshield washer replacement

My unit took a dump about 20 years ago. I bought an OEM unit from the local Chevy dealer. That lasted about 6 months. Bought a replacement unit from J.C. Whitney and haven't had a problem since.

You can do what my dad did back in the early 80's. Just took a bottle and mounted upside down on the dash and ran a hose to the spray nozels. I must say it was a little rigged up, but hey, it worked
