washer fluid bottles June 15, 2016, 07:47:48 PM Found the washer bottle in my 83 is cracked pretty much right in half. Does anyone know or has anyone used a Mustang bottle for a replacement? Quote Selected

washer fluid bottles Reply #5 – June 15, 2016, 11:19:08 PM If you have a 83 Bird/Cougar, the correct washer reservoir is a one year only Bird/Cougar coolant and washer fluid combo unit. 84 and up cars had the reservoir for washer fluid inside the driver front fender well. Quote Selected

washer fluid bottles Reply #7 – June 16, 2016, 12:47:38 AM No. Mine is a factory TC so it had the battery on the drivers side with over flow mounted to frame rail and washer bottle under fender.I would use that style but Im keeping the battery in the stock location because my air filter will be in opposite corner for my 5.050RACER, would you happen to have the pig tail to plug into that pump? I see the wiring is different between a 83 and the 87+ cars. Quote Selected

Not saying its wrong, just never seen one. If you have a late build date i could see that. Whats the vin on your car? Quote Selected

That would make that harness much less valuable, so I won't cut it. I will check to see if maybe it will unplug, but I doubt it. Quote Selected

Have you ever seen under the hood of any 2.3t Bird or XR7? They all came as I discribed Quote Selected

The washer pump didn't work, and the bottle just crumbled apart with age. I bought a universal inline pump at O'Rileys and fed it from a 20-oz Mountain Dew bottle, lol. Quote Selected
