Default Meth tank

When you use your window washer tank, do you still have your washer pump hooked up? Or is it just there to plug the hole? Also If you do not use it could a fitting be used were the hole was ( drilling it out to make it accept a bulk head fitting)?

When I bought my Alky Controls meth kit, it came with a plug to go in the hole for the washer pump.

I miss my washers, so I am looking for a different tank.

The kit comes with all you need to install it! Rubber plugs and gaskets for a complete install.

You will actually disconnect your pump and put it away somewhere and then route all you hoses as per the instructions

It is pretty staright forward and comes out real clean and nice, my buddy bought a remote tank to use for his washer fluid, it came with a neck and it fits for our Vettes and the pump pops right in. I have my pump re-moved and the wire harness taped off and secured off to the side

Get your kit here http://www.alkycontrol.com/

Thanks,Matt

At first I left mine hooked up also, then I found it leaked meth out the wipers all over the cowl under hard acceleration.
So I pulled the line off and plugged the pump.

I left the pump in place and just used a plug to seal the outlet of the pump.
Jet's go between the MAF and TB. before the IAT.
