Hi All

New on here and new to the E-Type. I have just acquired a 1969 series 2 2+2. Its is factory RHD. Its overall in pretty good nick, but has had some restoration over the years and some bits have been left off. The first one I am going to tackle is the screen washer.

The only bit left of mine is the jet mounted on the bonnet.

I think that the part is the 5SJ which I can find, but I cant seem to find anywhere a picture of where it is supposed to be mounted or wired and how it connects to the jet on the bonnet which I have to assume you have to disconnect every time you open the bonnet?

If anyone could oblige with a decsritption or even better some photos I would be much obliged.


After that I will need to think about how to tackle the heater, the box is there but it appears no motor or fan or wiring.

Hi Andrew...this is from my rhd 69 2+2.... the output pipe runs along the frame to the side of the radiator loops to the bonnet and up to the nozzels....so you dont have to dissconect to open bonnet.... Steve

Ahhh thank you, I was totally on the wrong track, I was trying to find where on the firewall it mounts, that makes a lot more sense.
