Terminator Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 Nice one Adam, any chance of a few more details please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Kindness Posted June 20, 2002 Author Share Posted June 20, 2002 righto... bought 8ft of the larger diameter tubing, 1 90degree joint, and 1 twin (adjustable direction) nozzle Ive just plumed the tubing from the front, into the engine and upto the rear pasenger side of the engine (also removed noise deadning glasswool shit)... fixed the hose in a position with the 90degree 'elbow' on it... Right in the same position is where the washer jet tubing splits into two... i simpley disconnect before it splits and put my little detour in... waalaaa windscreen wipers are a bit annoying tho but that'll be sorted when i get time to fit the bottle and pump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branners Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 If you really want to aid cooling you will get that big fat indicator out the way which will massively improve airflow to the IC.... JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradb Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 Whats an intercooler.. On 2nd thoughts don't answet that. Lee Burley tried and failed. Needless to say I want a HKS one. Apparently. Oops sorry back on thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith C Posted June 21, 2002 Share Posted June 21, 2002 I came up with an idea a while back for an IC spray. Unfortunately, UK-spec owners only need apply! Basically, take the feeds to the headlight washer jets, re-route them, fit MKIV Golf windscreen washer jets, and presto, instant IC spray with great water dispersion.

Branners Posted June 21, 2002 Share Posted June 21, 2002 what a few people have done is to move the indicator to the side light in the headlamp and then have the fog as the side lamp. Matt from this BBS has done it on his, and a few people copied it, but he knows all the parts that are required. JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wipers don't go when I use the jets which is nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
