I disconect the windshield washer nozels durring the summer and use the WW pump and resivior filled with water. My nozels are iragation nozels. I bought a couple of nozels and checked the spray patterns and chose the one that I liked best. I know it is getto but it was cheap and it works.

Here is the button to spray I tapped into the stock wiring harness and had to add 1 diode to just run the ww pump. With my set up the winshield wipers don't run. It took about 1 hour to figure that one out.
And I know the car is filthy inside and out (1 dog and 500 miles a week)

if you're going to go that far, (switchable, interface to utec) why not bite the bullet and see if you can find/scrounge another ww resevoir/pump? that way you can keep ww fluid in one for the windshield, and pure water in the other for the ic. i think it would actually be easier than rigging up the 2 way solenoid actuated diverter.
hell, if you've got a sportwagon, you've already got one for the back window! i never use that ww anyway... spray pattern sucks!

I thought about that and might rig up a tank in the trunk when I remove the interior to sound proof the floor pan. Don't the fuel lines run down the floor pan? If they do I will run a line and wires right next to the fuel lines for future use. If I put the tank in the trunk that will leave room under the hood for a catch can. I have acess to a TIG welder so the tanks might make a good project while it so cold out.
