C2 Windshield Washer Squiters Adjustment

[Lane Ockerman]

I recently cleaned out my windshield washer nozzles, they were plugged up over time with dirt etc.. I put them back into the vent grills and they began to squirt.
Now, I need to adjust them so they squirt properly so as to hit the center of the windshield.
The drivers side hits the top and over the windshield, the passenger side hits at the lower windshield stainless molding and lower part of windshield.
You can only put the squiters in the vent grill one way.
Is there a left and right or is there an easy way to "adjust" them to hit the windshield properly ??

Thanks for any advice !!

IF they are original GM nozzles, they are adjustable. Soak them in penetrating oil for several hours to disolve the internal corrision on the ball. Then take a straight pin and attempt to move the ball to aim the nozzle. Remember, PATIENCE! This thing has been in this position for 36+ years and will need time to break loose. Good luck

Dick,

Thanks for the great info. I'm gettin my car ready for the OPS check. I never though of using a straiht pin to adjust the nozzles, nor did I know they could be adjusted. Im' going to try it out soon.

Thanks,
