YukonJack Posted August 9, 2015 Report Posted August 9, 2015 Curious, has anyone added windshield washers to a P15, factory or aftermarket? Where were the nozzles positioned? I seem to recall seeing a setup where the nozzle came up from the dash and out of the windshield dividing bar. Pictures would be helpful. Thanks. Quote

YukonJack Posted August 9, 2015 Author Report Posted August 9, 2015 Thanks Donald. That's exactly what I had in mind. I've seen these before but without the nozzle or the part running to it. I imagine something could be pieced together, maybe even with an electric pump. But I think the nozzle will be a problem. Quote

DonaldSmith Posted August 9, 2015 Report Posted August 9, 2015 Fresh out of the box two years ago. I think it was about $150 on e-bay. Quote

DonaldSmith Posted September 6, 2017 Report Posted September 6, 2017 (edited) Jiffy Jet Repair: The stream weakened and the Jiffy Jet stopped squirting. I removed and disassembled the foot pump. I think something was caught in one of the check valves, because in a bench test, it worked. The rubber bladder had a permanent indentation from the plunger, and the beginning of a crack. I turned the bladder upside down and reassembled the pump. When I reinstalled the pump, it leaked at the hose fittings. I disassembled the pump again, and super-glued the fittings to the bladder, and filled the cracks with superglue. I reassembled and reinstalled the pump, and it is working, for now.

johnsartain Posted September 6, 2017 Report Posted September 6, 2017 The rubber bladder puts me in mind of fuel priming bulb for an outboard motor. That might be a suitable, maybe even cheaper, replacement if needed. Quote
DonaldSmith Posted September 6, 2017 Report Posted September 6, 2017 Thanks, johnsartain, for the tip - fuel priming pump for outboard, as possible replacement for aging Jiffy Jet bladder. We'll see how long my bladder (the one in the Jiffy Jet pump) lasts. Quote
