I'm having trouble installing the nozzles on the wipers. The car was not equipped with windshield washers originally. I screw in one of the nozzles and it seems to tighten up with the little hole that might be squirting on the windshield. The other side, if I screw it in till it's tight it is not in the right direction. I don't want to force it at the risk of breaking something. There must be a method of getting these adjusted just so. If I just stop with the nozzle pointing in the right direction it's too loose and would just fall out.
Help is needed. Thanks in advance for any advise.

Can you put a rubber o ring in between? It would have some play


"Frame Off" restoration, its a journey not a destination
