THIS!I must say, whether you all know it or not, the posts and stickys on this site have helped greatly. Thanks, and I will let you know how it goes. Cheers!
Got my wiper arms back in. Cleaned the corrosion out of the windshield washer "nozzles" and got them to spray a nice volume, but they spray inconsitantly so I think it's the switch on the column (I also have turn signal issues there). I had two bends in one of the arms so I used a rubber mallet, light taps from a baby sledge and a little brute force to straighten it as best I could without jacking anything up permanently. I used rust reforming primer on the linkage and windshield nozzles and jammed lithium grease into all the joints. Screwed up and put the linkage arm to the motor on backwards so I had to pull the cowl and everything to set it right.
Wipers are still slow as well and I only have one speed it seems. No squeaking anymore though!
While I was waiting for the paint to dry on the linkage I put larger self-tapping bolts into my license plate and finished my fuel can. I put a small stripe of yellow to mark it for diesel.
