Winshield washer hose routing? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

barn9 · 03-20-2004, 01:29 PM

Would anyone happen to have a pic of how the hose from the windshield washer jar should be routed? The P O of my truck had evidently just taken it off, and I have never done anything about it, as it really wasn't an issue with me. Anyway, I bought a new washer bottle to replace the old fugly one, and decided I should run a new hose and see if everything works. My Chilton manual has no info on this subject other than changing out the pump. Appeciate any info, LB.

Mine was dangling down by the tranny, so I need to know too.

the washer hose goes from the container (on the driverside fenderwell foward) behind the lip of the fender/inner fender comes out in back of the hinge runs accross the channel of the firewall to the center then it drops about 6" and goes thru a rubber grommet into the cab to the pump and the 2 hoses for the nozzels come out the firewall thru that same grommet.
if you don't understand me i could try for pictures tomorrow afternoon

Thanks cdowns. That's just one of those little things I have never thought to look at when looking at other trucks. Figured that was how it went, but wanted to hear it from someone else.

Is there any practical way of telling which hose is which. Mine were cut and hanging over the brake canister. There are 3.

Thanks
Charlie
