Maybe his dealer should hire her and fire the current Vicky. Then our friend can enjoy Vicky v2.0, smarter and prettier. Then perhaps she could be of more use in helping him unthaw his nozzles

Everything is frozen. And i challenge you to find the nozzles without using them. I think they are in the wiper, but I can't remember now -- it's been so long!!

Go to Pep Boys (or whatever) and buy a heated dipstick (intended for the engine block) and put it into the washer fluid tank and plug it in. I would just be very careful not to let it rest on the plastic tank and melt it!!

Or a hair dryer.

Or tell it a story about kittens. That always makes me feel all warm inside..

Allright maybe this is the young innocent and naive 17 year old that I am coming out, but what the fuck is sucking armpits?! Do you mean that literally??? That sounds like the nastiest thing in the world, did she do this to you? If she did, did you shave your armpits or did she just like to have hair in her mouth?! I dont understand... LOL

I hate to get back on topic, but...

THEY THAWED!!!

It got above freezing this weekend and I flushed as much as I could and added de-icer several times over saturday.

Thank god my headlight washers work again!!!

Let this be a lesson to us all that there are some unscrupulous companies out there that will sell you windshield washer fluid that freezes at 32 degrees -- AUTOZONE, for one.

I learned my lesson -- read the bottle-- der.

It was a one-time thing and it grossed me out as much as I can sense your current revulsion. Need I say more???

I am glad to hear everything is thawed out and working ok And thanks for the heads up on the different types of washer fluid...I am sure just about every body went and checked their cars and will pay a little more attention to the type they buy!
