    I'm poked a pin in the nozzle to no avail and having only the three jets is seriously beginning to irritate me! Sad I know.:I

    Now now, take it to a garage and kindly ask them to blow compressed air up the pipes, sorted, meantime express some interest in a new car.
    Failing that, take it to a petrol station and use their air yourself.

    I tried that with a wee compressor my old man's got. No joy unfortunately. Any other ideas 'cos I don't fancy having to pull off the heat shielding on the bonnet to get into the tubing.

    They couldn't fix it? A blocked skoosher? That's a pain in the rear!

    Surely a blocked skoosher is a pain in the front!Ooh er missus!

    Have you noticed if any water is leaking through the heat sheilding on the bonnet - it could be a burst pipe or it may have popped off? EIther that or the hose may have got kinked somewhere?

    I don't think any of the water is leaking through the heat shield, or at least I never noticed any but I'll have a look tonight.

    As for the pain in the front. Doesn't the thought of that skoosher being blocked make your eyes water?

    Reminds me of the stories you hear about men trying to pass kidney stones through their p-shooter! apparently it's the closest a man comes to experiencing the pain of pregnancy!
