Search for the Galant washer mod (new Lancers have better sprayers also). Your washer pump could be giving up also.

Just clean it out with a small pin. There is probably a few deposits or wax in there.

It could be that the nozzles are clogged. When you use the washer the pressure builds up, then instead of dying when the pump turns off it slowly bleeds off, causing the remaining pressure to slowly push the washer fluid out.

Hey Mate.....If their clogged, Simple Vinegar will do the trick......Soak a paper towel in Vinegar & work it into the nozzles over & over then activate the washer.........Works for me but smells like hell.......Peace
