Hiya
Today I upgraded the washer jet set up as I was finding that a third of N/S of the screen at the bottom did not get much water because of the design of the blade orientation to the screen
I ran a arm mounted twin jet nozzle to the lower section of the O/S arm one jet fires up the centre and the other fires to dead area of the N/S
This mod has improved things no end and I now get no dry wiper marks
I have noticed no reduction in pressure to the main jets either
It's an easy job to do and takes no time splicing the washer pipe adding a y tee fitting routing the new washer pipe around the scuttle and up behind the wiper arm
Also while your at it check that the wiper arm spindle drain holes are clear as mine were blocked with dirt and the recessed part was filling up with water
The parts for doing this upgrade was no more the £10 and I have a spare jet as they come as a pair
