Howdy Jeff. So, are back the harness of working for a living?
Yesterday after I changed the oil on my Elky I did the routine short test drive to bring it to full operating temp. I hit the windshield washers when a bird had perfect aim and got me while rolling at 50 MPH. They did not squirt. So I got back home and cleaned up that mess manually, and checked the washer pump. I could hear it run, but nothing squirted. It is a 30 second operation to pop it out and pull the hoses off.
I tried it with a 12 volt connection and a cup of water. It runs but does not pump. It is all sealed up and manufactured to be disposable, not rebuilt. So off to the parts store, NAPA. They are the local warehouse, but it is in Dallas and it was 16 bucks, but they wanted 5 bucks shipping. I looked at them and said screw paying for shipping, I will get it on Amazon for free shipping and likely less money. They looked at me like I was from the future. They said they can waive the shipping. So I will go got it tomorrow. I should have ordered it on Amazon. It would be delivered to my door, same price.
