"Wayne,
If it is the W/W pump piston itself, I also have a rebuilder who is great. Jason's contact is a great recommendation!

"Wayne,
Good luck with the kit. Make sure you put all the rubber pieces from the kit in the exact same places as they were in the old unit - careful when you take it out.

"Already have checked the fluid. It was food fluid and the screen was clear.
Thanks Curt

"I tried priming the pump but no luck, I got a little fluid into the pump body but it would not pump.
Thanks for your input Chris, Ill post the fix when I find it.

"I have ordered a windshield washer pump rebuild kit from Caddy Daddy and should receive it very soon. My pump mechanism seems to work properly so I'm thinking that should solve the problem.
Thanks for your input Dennis. "
"Check your washer fluid too. I've had problems getting the washer to pump before only to find out that the fluid had formed some gunk that was clogging the screen on the intake hose."
"I have used the rebuild kits and I had to prime the system."
"Chris,
You are 100% correct. I hope Wayne tries the W/W Kit repair also. It may do the trick. Mine was a bit more complicated. Nice talking to you.

"Dennis,
I am glad you mentioned “controlled” air since I neglected to note that we usually would blow the air in while the top was not sealed so as to avoid about potentially damaging the plastic reservoir! Unless we were in a…"
"Chris,
This does jar some memories from my dad's mechanic shop years ago. We would also shoot a small amount of controlled air into the hole in the reservoir top to see if the pump would prime. It is worth a…"

i worked at neighborhood gas stations in the late 1960s. I have a dim memory of having to "prime" the windshield washer pumps from that era in order to get them to work. My memory is that we used the air hose with…"
"Hi Wayne,
Did you try a Wind. Washer Pump repair kit (white piece where the three hoses attach to)? It has to be put together the same way with the O rings as per diagram. For my 64 Caddy, I did the repair kit, but still no luck. I…"

63 vs 64 Hood V Size Difference
Started by Jason Edge in 1963/64 Cadillac Specific Discussion yesterday. 0 Replies 0 Likes
The 64 hood V is considerably bigger than the 63 hood V, and one of the many things I have not done in dealing with these cars on the last 3 decades was to do a direct comparison. Someone asked about…Continue

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
Vintage Air AC
Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments 1 Like
Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
accumulator dryer

Who rebuilds original AC accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year , There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A What is everyone using ? I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks
