Windshield Wiper Fluid not working right
Windshield Wiper Fluid not working right When I press it (94' trans am btw), the wipers come on, but the fluid doesn't squirt out. The fluid container is nearly full. When I looked closer, I see a little bit of water ooze out from between the wipers- not from the squirters, but from under the plastic. My dad says he saw water under the car as well. I'm guessing a hose has come loose or something... how should I troubleshoot this?

I can't really see where the water comes from, other than it oozes out from under the plastic. I wouldn't know how to remove the plastic (at the bottom of the windshield) or anything

Not familiar with the LT1 routing but shouldn't be hard. Start at the hose coming off the resevoir, should be working since you've got some fulid at the wipers. Just keep following/activating it until you find it.

Yeah thats pretty much all u need to remove to cowl.. they are just pop rivets but they always get jacked up.. its always a good idea to keep a few of them around.. think there is 6 or 7 that hold it in place.. there is no leak anywhere when you are spraying?

If they are infact rivets then they will need to be drilled out, havent looked there at all and is 1:26am, not to mention the TA is 300km away. I believe you could start out by removing the "cowl cover" (black piece where windsheild wipers are) or so, which I would assume to be held on with clips or maybe bolted rather than riveted (I dont remember at all, but it could be riveted as stated before - if we are talking about the same part).
