Windshield wiper fluid pump help
Hey guys! just joined recently on account of my windshield washer fluid not working for a while. I have a 1987 760 turbo and i decided to try to work on it today and remembered this problem. So i went to work on it and blew out the hoses like everything anywhere says and they were fine, all the hoses are hooked up and the pump runs. i hear it humming but the fluid doesn't actually reach my windshield but rather leaks out of the bottom of my car under the tank when i try to use it but i cant tell where it leaks from because its such a pain to get to. Can anyone help me with any of this? I'm thinking about taking the air filter case off the top of it so i can attempt to reach it. any advice or help is much obliged! Thanks guys.

LOL, Hi Waldo, how do you bump a thread that is only 1 day old and still at the top of the thread list. Funny.
Anywho, I had a '87 740 GLE that did that once. The pump was bad. Go ahead and replace the pump. You can also make sure the tube that connects to the pump is not split causing it to loose pressure while trying to pump.
Have a good one.

haha. idk. just figured it gradually went down in the list like most other forums... but ok. thanks man. i checked all the hoses and theyre fine.. but theres a t connector that goes off the main line to another smaller line running to my grill basically... what exactly is that for? i was confused on why it was like that.
