My r33gtst s1 has gone a bit loopy. For no reason, with no recent mods at all, I used my front windscreen washer. The wipers came on but no water. I figured the bottle was empty. Then i noticed that my back window was wet. Now it sprays the back and wipes the front, or sprays the front and wipes the back. What? I have owned 30 year old cars before and none of those went senile

sounds like someone swapped your hoses over under the hood or swapped the plugs in the pumps . my car has two pumps out of the same washer bottle . fronts and rear . sounds very coincedental that they would both still work but the wrong way round

lol!

You generally can't interchange the plugs on the motors so probably the outlet hoses have been swapped. Did it always work like this? Have you had a front passenger side repair recently?

I did the same thing a while back... took the washer bottle out to do something, put it back in withthe hoses reversed. swapped them back and all fixed. or if you're lazy, you may be able to just swap the plugs over, IIRC they're identical, just different coloured on the 33...

Yeah ok fair call it was just the hoses swapped. I forgot i did that one when installing the front mount with low light, mates with questionable "advice" and as i seem to recall, no less than 2 cartons of beer, without which mates refuse to get their hands dirty. Thank god that mystery has been solved, i can sleep at night again. cheers guys
