Morning all.
Following on from reading the excellent advice found in these pages I have replaced the non return valve and restored my tailgate washer to working order. However, at teh final stage I can't get the water to actually squirt on to the glass. If I have the pin hole on the nozzle facing the glass, it actually only squirts on to the tailgate because the angle seems to be wrong. But it is only possible to twist the nozzle around 360 degrees, but you can't as it were tip it outwards a bit. Am I missing something?
 
Don't know if this helps.

Oh my goodness I must be "plank of the week"!
The nozzle on mine was turned round 90 degress from yours so that the nozzle screw was sat flat rather than on its side. I had changed the nozzle for a new one and put it back in the same position!!
Thank you. I feel stupid but grateful for the advice!!
Many thanks.
