Another small but annoying job sorted ! So yes those screws do indeed hold the bracket and union/ gasket to the body. Impeller was fine, so carefully eased off the gasket with a sort of ' backplate' to expose the inner face of the union and sure enough there was another small dollop of gloop. Was no...

My car has been ' lucky' in that it has spent all its non driving life in a garage of the two owners it has had, thus not been constantly exposed to baking sunlight. I do hope he can help, although i get the impression he has...

Re: Wiper blades.....again....
Trying to keep it as original as i can !!!! So yes, they are original Trico arms and blades. I have recently brought a new pair of blades with stainless back plates from CW, so should be correct size. However, there are differences - original one have the barbs that have to be squeezed in , to relea...
