During the daily tasks we all seem to put our blazers thru I am sure sooner or later someone has or will break the fragile little connector that the rear washer hose connects to. With this part being old and brittle I broke mine while cleaning the back hatch glass. When it does break, the little nipple end will almost surely still be stuck in the hose. Leave it there as here is a quick and easy fix that works. With the nipple part still inside the hose, cut about an inch piece of the straw that comes with a can of carb cleaner or some other spray cleaner and insert half it in the hose and the with the other half sticking out attach the hose as far as you can back into the broken end of the fitting. Fits like a charm and no leaks. Push it all the way in and you will never even see the piece of the straw.

In regards to the washer, I have a fairly simple question. Where the )(*&^% is the tank. The manual says it could be either the regular tank (don't hear the pump run when I hit the button) or in the wheel well behind the spare. I've got a 2000 s10 2dr 4x4 with the spare inside. and there is no tank in that space behind the spare. I bought is at 24k miles 6 yrs ago and now have 164 on it, so I have had time to look.
