You cannot install a heat tape on the washer horses when it is made of rubber. Fabrication may help in replacing the rubber.
Most of the time, the old links are corroded together, and it's much easier to use a cutting torch to remove them. Once they are removed, install new links & bushings (bolt, washer, rubber, sway bar, rubber, washer, sleeve, washer, rubber, control arm, rubber, washer, nut)
Make sure you put -25F washer fluid in "before" it gets below freezing.
No i would use screen wash. Regular washer fluid has something in it that keeps it from freezing as quick as straight water would. If it gets extremely cold it may get slushy but will not freeze to the point of breaking the washer jug. There is winter washer fluid that I assume stays liquid at lower temperature's.
Rubbing Alcohol
a washer is generally a rubber washer that tightens and seals as sometimes they will go bad and have to change it..
Windshield washer fluid has a freezing point of -40
dowty washer
Windshield washer fluid already has isopropyl alcohol in it. No matter how much you put in, there will always be a freeze point - the alcohol will lower the freeze point, but cannot prevent it from happening. The container you buy the washer fluid in should tell you what temperature it's supposed to work to.
FLOAT
it is inserted into a rubber grommet at the bottom of the washer reservoir [bottle].
probably being over used and the rubber inside is burning and melting....
Sure...just as soon as you ask about a windshield washer pump....what the heck is a winchill washer pump?
