Default 1982 windshield washer reservoir removal,how???

My windshield washer pump in the resevoir is leaking,do I need to remove the reservoir to fix that,or can I do it true the side vent in the fender?
If I do have to remove the reservoir,how is that done?
It doesn't look like there is much space to remove it? :confused:

I don't remember exactly how I removed mine but remember it was tight to get it out. I removed the vapor canister and side vent. Seems like I had to take the pump off of the bottom of the reservior.

You need to pull the resevoir. The pump has a large plastic nut, you need to undo that on the inside of the tank.

Piet,

Ik krijg ineens allerlij emails van alle kanten en ben door Johan in een mailtje op de hoogte gebracht van het (bestaan van het) betreffende topic op 't forum. Ik weet ook niet wat er aan de hand is, er zijn daar mensen die denken wat te weten of er wordt vreselijk gekletst. Wel weet ik dat iedereen blijkbaar een email heeft gehad over dat wij ermee gestopt waren. Een reden stond er geloof ik niet bij.

Het maakt eigenlijk ook niet uit, wat gebeurd is is gebeurd maar terug naar de club ga ik zeker niet meer. Jammer maar helaas.

Marck
