[T3] Washer problems


Hello All,

The custom resto is just about done and I'm now onto the minuscule
details.... like making sure my rear deck lid seal lays perfectly and
such...

I have a problem I am frustrated about.

You know that piece that screws into your valve stem on the spare, the
hose that goes to a screw in valve/pressure contraption that is secured
by screwing it down into the fluid reservoir bottle for the windshield
wiper fluid ....

Well, that valve pressure control thing seems to fail... a lot.  I have
3 of them.  All of them have worked at one time.  I recently boug#^{H Bosch piece.... worked for about a week, then just stopped.  So
what's the deal?  The rest of the system is free and clear.  The valve I
am supposing, is supposed to pressurize the bottle when I screw it in,
but it is not.... I can't seem to figure out how exactly it is supposed
to work.  I have even cut one in half but it remains a mystery.

I don't know what's causing them to fail, and I am about ready to weld
up a little pressure container to work in place of this crazy
contraption.  But I'd rather not....

Any ideas?

BTW Jason, pulled your pulley, it will be in the mail Tuesday.
