Here we have our old washer fluid reservoir that we removed from our vehicle, and our new parts from 1AAuto.com. As you can see these parts are exactly the same. We have the same size reservoir, same inlets with new gaskets, same pump location, single bolt mounting. And the bottom, we have the same locating pins. Even comes with a new filler neck, which will just pop right in, just like our old one popped out. Now, it's not uncommon for these to crack or break. So if yours has gone back and is leaking fluid, this new part from 1A Auto is going to go in direct fit, just like your original equipment, and fix you up right.
Reinstall the pump onto the washer line. Reinstall the pump into the washer. Snap the lines into place. Close the electrical connector. And our cover will hook back onto it's tabs.
Reinstall the washer reservoir. Reinstall the 10 millimeter hold down bolt, and tighten it down with a 10 millimeter socket and ratchet. Install the filler neck, as well as the 7 millimeter screw.

Replaced reservoir and pump on my 1997 GMC Sierra. Reservoir was exact fit but pump was not...although it worked just fine. Specifically the fill connector coming out of the pump was not in the same exact location so the pump wouldn't set into the reservoir like the original one did. Wasnt a big deal once the top casing of the reservoir was snapped back on which helped hold the pump in place.
