I'm reinstalling my windshield wiper system on my '46 Fleetmaster and have a few questions.
What size "sizes" an length tubing should I buy?
What is the routing, or where can I find a diagram?
Same question for the windshield washer system.?
There is a small brass tube on one of the chrome wiper stanchions visible from the inside with a set screw on the outside to hold it. What is it's purpose?


Thanks

If the car does not have a vacuum booster fuel pump there will be on vacuum hose only for the wiper. It will run fron the fitting on the intake manifold to the moter.
The washer jets thread int the wiper stanchions. If the car does not have washers there will be plugs in the holes. The tube is more or less pressed into the casting. Will get back later with the washer hose routing.

Oh, by the way....would need your email address to send the info.

Thanks. The car has two separate washer nozzles, No extra vac pump on the fuel pump. Look forward to seeing your routing diagram. My email is: pauljdel@sbcglobal.net
