Any idea how to fix this up?


My washer fluid reservoir is leaking the stuff right back out. Original 15 year old reservoir, so makes sense. But can it just be patched or something? I mean it's nice to be able to use it but not super necessary? I can't seem to find a junk yard part for this 95 mustang.

You may be able to use some sort of silicone sealant but I don't know how long it would hold. Check RockAuto.com, they might carry the windshield washer fluid reservoir.

I found a used one, how easy would it be for a mechanic to swap this out? Half hour to hour labor?

Really a mechanic? Just do it yourself. For something like that it would be a total waste of money to take it to a mechanic. Unless you are rich.

Damn.. Well I guess if you have to. It shouldn't take that long. Take it to a ma and pa shop they are usually cheaper than Ford.

Yeah.. should be pretty cheap to have replaced.

Don't you have a jack with your spare tire? It's not like you even need to get under the car so I wouldn't worry about jackstands.

I find windshield washer fluid comes in handy quite often, what is with this "who needs it nonsense?" Cheap part, easy to replace, do it.
