Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    Restoring hood sprayer pressure

    ok everyone just a common fix here

    im not sure is this is technically a DIY cause its only discussing 1 of a possible many problems.

    bottom line for those of you who have been poor hood sprayer pressure for your windshield and you have tried everything from cleaning the sprayers to changing the hoses with no improvement i have good news for you.

    this method takes 5 minutes and anyone can do this.

    tools u need:
    1 small size zip tie
    1 pliers
    1 cutting tool



    ok now u see this sucker where its moist



    that is the culprit. i dont think these have a defined nipple as the other parts of the hose connectors thus causing lack of seal = lack of pressure u get the picture. wrap it around close to the fender leaving about 2-3 mm of room from the bottom.




    now cut allowing 1-2 mm of line




    and BAM thats all there is to it. quick simple easy and effective. im sure there are better ways to truly seal it but i hope this helps some of u out who are frustrated.

    BTW these photos were taken with that iphone i have in the classifieds.(yes its night time and yes my car is dirty T__T just b happy ur water squirts)
    and if this helps enough people then i can put this in the DIY but like i said previously its only addressing one of the many possible problems so its not truly a full DIY.

        Well, I still have the resivore, I need to take the fender off cuz now thats bugging me. See, I still have fluid in there, but I know for a fact that the hoses are not hooked up. I wonder if he just unhooked some or cut it and taped it off lol.

            in my case i have already cleaned and replaced tubings + connectors, so i knew it was something else. like it says in the DIY if this replacing step fails then zip tie ftw

                      This should be in diy or somthing or part of a sticky. I was having this problem and did the same thing my self. I'm just bumping it because it was 10 pages back.
