    windshield washer pump

    I know there is a thread around here on this but I can't find it. Denso pumps are 80-100 bucks or more. Mine apparently cracked in the accident but I haven't needed it until yesterday. Lots of cheapies on ebay, but are they worth 10 bucks? I think I may have used one like that last time, and while it worked it sort of dribbled like an old man. I think I will probably try one again, unless the local junkyard has a denso for cheap

    I grabbed a MOCA MW05438 off ebay for 10.50, and I'm happy to say it even works! Will update if I learn anything of interest but my first impression is that it seems to be more powerful than my last Chinese import, which wasn't powerful at all.

    Re: windshield washer pump

    I need new nozzles. Anyone have a cheap effective substitute for the $50 OEM sets from Toyota or the $25 sets from Autozone that probably suck or won't fit? This seems like a part that is ripe for MacGyvering. "using only dental floss and a stick of dynamite, Mac saves the day for Previa owners around the world..."

    I can't believe I never knew this. I've been driving Previas since 1998 and I just discovered that the filtering screen on the washer reservoir is also a washer fluid dipstick. Unbelievable. .
