Ok, when I did my plugs, I removed the alternator, and somehow broke the line for the windshield washer fluid. Yeah, I know. I tried cutting it and putting it back together, but it still doesn't work. Yes, there is fluid in the resivoir. What can I do? How bad did I mess it up?

you should just be able to buy a piece of line to replace it

I don't know though, because cutting and reattaching the line did nothing.

Is it that piece right next to the firewall? I broke mine also. I was able to mend it.

I edited my post. I don't have it I guess.

Take a pic of where its broken.

Just because the line is broken doesn't mean the pump shouldn't work.

Ok, I'll dig up the camera and take a pic. I cut some of the line off, so it's different than it was when it was broken

Hmmmm. Why didn't you just mend it where the break was?

I have no idea, to be honest. I was not thinking well for some reason.

Ok, I know what happened. There's a grommet for it to go through the firewall, and i pushed the hose that goes in there back, and tried to tape the thing to the hose end on the grommet, and inadvertantly pushed the other end of the hose through. Hope that makes sense, if not, i'm bad at explainations.

Ok, I got it fixed. I took the grommet, which has a rubber hose sticking out of it, and cut the hose off of it, and connected the two pieces of plastic tubing using the hose and some black electrical tape.

Sorry for no pics. My camera is on a plane between Paris and MN, and the other cameras are AWOL.
