1968 Type1 Washer Bottle connections by Spike
Hi all, Have started to take a look at my washer bottle in my '68 1500 Type 1 (UK). (type where you pump up the bottle direct) I seem to have mislaid (if I ever had it) the fill cap. I have all the other connections, but can't test the assembly without the fill cap (I presume).
