Leaking windshield washer fluid resevoir...
Sunday, December 04, 2005 4:32 PM
There must be a hole right at the bottom of the thing because after i fill it up the whole thing is empty inside of a few minutes. any suggestions on how to fix/path it up. or should it be replaced. is it hard to remove and replace?

If you pull the bumper liner out, you should be able to get to it. Mostly 7mm screws and then three 10mm bolts that hold the washer fluid tank in place.

Before you go to that much trouble though... there's a hose that connects to the motor. If the hose is broken or disconnected, the fluid just pours out. Check that first.

I used some epoxy to fix a hairline crack in my washer fluid bottle.

Autozone instructions.

So does the bottle drop out from the bottom? Bumper liner? Is this under the bumper? Or the liner on top infront of the rad? ( the one you remove to change the head lights? ) My bottle has a leak, will have to tear into it on the weekend.

Thanks,

I agree with Ryan

I had a crack on the bottom of my tank. I drained completely, put some epoxy glue, left it for 1 hour to dry completely, fill her back up, and it never leaked again.
