Windshield washer pump inoperative
I have spent a few hours trying to get pump to pump fluid. The lines are all clear, The pump Is working as it should when the washer button is pushed. I have a spare wiper motor assembly which I have switched parts around with. The diaphragm is in good condition, The only idea I have at this point is that the seal around the valves is leaking. I tried to coat the seal with Vaseline but no difference.
Any ideas where to go next?
Does any body out there have any idea if the seal is available anywhere?

Once I get the rebuild kit installed, I'll let you know how I made out.

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!

Yesterday I installed the windshield washer pump kit, I primed it and it worked! I did have to clear nozzles and replace the lines to them but all is working now.
Thanks all who contributed.

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed
Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?
My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.
Many thanks,

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?
