Higher output windscreen washer pump?
Is there a higher output Td5 washer pump that is easy to fit? Have fitted an additional jet to the windscreen giving four jets but they are a bit weak. Cheers.

try wiring another standard universal washer pump in series in the line, should boost pressure and flow.

Pipe diameter same as standard. Standard pump seemed weak just with two jets!! Will look into light washer pump. Thanks all.

TD5 on washer pumps are available in a higher pressure variant, with a red top IIRC, used for the rear screen. I'm sure google will come up with the numbers. I have 2 red tops on my bottle and the pressure through 2 sets of jets is fine.
