I have a 46 Chevy 1/2 ton and I am now looking at my wiper - only have one,
on the drive side. How should this work?
There are two knobs - the only shiny item on the truck everything is rust or
painted - no chrome. Well the knob on the left seems only to push in or
pull out. The knob on the right seem to spin. I have move them around a
lot with out moving the wiper blade. What do each of these do had how can I
test this unit out?
I see the pipe from the wiper connects to a rubber hose. This hose connects
to a medal pipe and then runs down the left front side until under the dash.
There the 2nd rubber hose connects to a metal pipe that goes through the
firewall. This then connects to the 3ed rubber hose that is connected to a
outlet pipe under the carb. I ran a wire throughout all pipes and hoses and
it is a clean passage. Also the vacuum seem to suck into the carb. but I do
not have any idea how strong this sucking should be.
Should the wiper motor need oil or a lube job? Any help on what I can do
myself to try to get it working would be appreciated.
Thanks,
