C2 - question on repo windshield washer bag, cap, & hose

[Ronald M.]

This may well be a dumb question, but I'll risk the public flogging anyway - I just received a reproduction windshield washer bag, cap, rubber hose & filter - and for the life of me, I can't figure out how the rubber hose they supplied could possibly fit through the small hole in the thin aluminum cap with damaging one, or the other, or likely both!?!

Ron its made to be a tight fit. try lubing the hose up maybe some dielectric grease. I think the repro stuff sometimes have problems with correctness. those china drill bits may not know what SAE is.
