Trico vacuum washer system
OK, so i know the S/C didnt have a screen wash system, but its a legal requirement here in the UK. I could hide the bottle and use a nasty modern system, but instead i have sourced a Trico plunger button and an almost correct (original washer bottle wouldnt pass Uk regs - has to be min 1 litre capacity) NOS trico washer bottle with the vacuum unit inside the lid.
I've found out how to connect this up to the engine inlet manifold (which i dont yet have) from a Jag forum. But does anyone have any experience with this. I know it'll be rather poor perfoming. But.... im still tempted just for the 'old school' experience. alternatively i could ripout put the vacuum parts and mod it with a hidden elec motor.
any comments?
