Alternate Windshield Washer Pump

Recommended Posts

My washer pump was DOA, along with all the hoses to & from the jets.  I decided to fix it all while I have the cowl apart

I have stashes of Volvo parts, so I made a Volvo (VDO) pump fit. These were used for all Volvo 700/900 series from 83-98, so readily available. Later models use a large inlet that plugs directly into the tank, so none of those will work.

Only had to bore out the factory sleeve to retain the new pump in the same location. Made an adaptor pigtail using the factory pump wiring. Pump is larger than original, still no issue with space

Volvo check valve added (just under the cowl lip) to maintain fluid head at the junction
