So last night I thought I might have had a coolant leak. It’s not coolant.

It’s washer fluid. I kind of forgot I have headlight washers. Which the leak is directly under.

I have headlight washers. They don’t work, I’ve never bothered to track down why. I did check if the fuse was pulled, but it seems good. Maybe I’ll investigate more this summer.

The photos of the car from the ad where I first saw it show it missing the washer covers, but the guy who I bought it from had got new ones (from EL_ULY!), and it wouldn’t shock me if he did something to disable the washers to keep the covers from popping off again.

I had them on my C30 and ended up removing the entire mechanism. They would spray the entire front of the car and it always let the hood really spotty from the fluid. I hated them.

Could be that the mechanism is  gone and he just glued on the covers

Note the three seasons are Spring/Summer/Fall. Call it a compromise between low temp usability and dumping 5 gallons a week of blue stuff out on bugs and pollen.

17¢ is a lot less than the blue stuff goes for around here.
