acfortier Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Since I can no longer fit my washer fluid reservoir next to my brake booster/master cylinder since I upgraded to the bigger dual diaphragm, I was thinking about running two lines from the master cylinder into the XJ prop. valve. Any suggestions? Also, does anyone happen to know the sizes needed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acfortier Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 Actually, just looking at some 90 degree fittings. That would seem to get the job done, yes? Not sure where to buy or if I can even find the right sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acfortier Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 Of my problem area? Sure. Wasn't a great job to begin with, I believe the line closest to the booster was the original one and we just expanded on it as it already had a nice bend around the M/C. But that is the best we could do with the front one, and even then looking back on it, it still seems iffy to me. I was hoping that maybe a 90 degree fitting or even something flexible would be worth it so I can just place the reservoir back where it was.

acfortier Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 Well, that's what I will do, I just don't want pressure pushing on those lines from the bottle, or the rubbing that will inevitably occur. :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 I would just bend that line a little closer. plenty of room there, just need a smaller radius on the bend. or you could throw some split wire loom over it as a sacrificial entity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acfortier Posted July 6, 2011 Author Share Posted July 6, 2011 I suppose it could work. I tried it myself and I just ended up slightly bending it where the end is instead of keeping that part straight (if you can see by the picture). The tube bender I have won't work, got any tricks?

acfortier Posted July 6, 2011 Author Share Posted July 6, 2011 I suppose I could, but that seems like too much work for me. Eh, I don't know, the only problem is I have to find one now at one of the junk yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankTheDog Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Look at Don's picture and redo your lines like his. Then you'll have plenty of room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kept the old washer tank with this setup with no touchy-feely for awhile until I figured how to mount the newer tank inside the fender well. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
