'95 GST. How do you take the washer nozzles out? Mine are clogged solidly at the nozzles -- water runs freely from the hose to the nozzle but not from the nozzle itself and I can neither clear it by pushing a wire through nor backflush it with a syringe.

The manual is no help: "5. Remove nozzle."

They used to work, the reservoir, pump, and plumbing seem fine, but evidently there was some trash in there. I've had this problem on my Expo LRVs and once the nozzles are cleared the answer is a 1/8" fuel filter (as for a lawnmower) in the line ahead of the 'Y' joint under the hood. But I gotta get the nozzles out in order to use More Pursuasive Methods to clean them.
 
Not a 2g guy, just trying to help.

they don’t have fasteners underneath? I think I read that before.

Most of the ones I’ve dealt with just have a little plastic tab that you push to release from the hood.

Also, just in case you want to upgrade, I read that 3g eclipse nozzles were an upgrade.
 
On the bottom of the hood we're the hose goes in . 2 tabs push those in. Generic pic with a pick or small screw driver.
