August 5, 200619 yr I have an 85 4wd turbo wagon. I need to remove the windshield washer fluid container in the right front fender. How do I go about doing it.:cool:
August 6, 200619 yr Sorry to be the one to tell you, but you pretty much have to remove the fender. You may be able to get to it from the wheel well if you pull down the plastic mud guard, but I'm not sure. GD

August 6, 200619 yr that blows... does this apply to my 87 GL10 sedan as well? it would seem to, but i have never looked at it with the thought of removing it, so i couldnt tell you what it looks like...

August 13, 200619 yr i would remove the fender liner first. i think theres 2 bolts holding the tank in. removing the fender itself will provide the most room to work with, but you have to pull the bumper to get the front of the fender off. (which is always PITA in my experience.)
August 13, 200619 yr Got an '86 Sedan here that I'm stipping for parts. I have the fenders off of it, but it does look like you could drop the tank out from the bottom if you pull the plastic liner in the wheel well.
August 13, 200619 yr you just need to take out the thing that is under the fender, the black thing that on the wheel, 6 screw's and 15min and it's out, you dont need to take the wheel out.
August 13, 200619 yr I pulled mine when I did removed the air intake snorkus. Took a few minutes to find all the bolts, but it wasn't super hard. Just removed the wheel and the plastic fenderwell lining.
August 14, 200619 yr ok, i checked it out today. theres 3 nuts/bolts, accessed from the engine bay side. undo those, and you should be able to slide the resevoir out without needing to take off the fender.
August 18, 200619 yr Author Hi Everyone, OK, I went in through the front liner. There are 3 studs that stick through the fender. 2 behind the drier, and 1 behind the air cleaner. The liner came out quickly, and easily and the unit was replaced smoothly. It all happened so fast that I'm still waiting for the inevitable problem to show up. Thanks for all the suggestions. Mike.
