Default windshield wipers

I have a 98 dodge 5.2L 1500 4x4, my wiper fluid lines are somewhat clogged. Is there a way to fix this or do you have to buy new lines?

I never think of it until I need it then it sucks, if anybody has had this problem or has any idea's that would be great.

Thanks,

Junie

I'd say screw it and by new lines. It's not worth the headache and time to go threw all that trouble.

You could try forced air, and/or use some thin tubes like brake lines to ram rod the gunk out.

My right wiper line was clogged. I removed the cowl to access the lines. I blew them out with air and made sure all was clear before reinstalling.

They work good now. I had very little spray on the right side before the fix.
