Hi Guys

My 87-year-old mother-in-law has relinquished, finally, her 1995 Ford Fiesta Ghia, she's lovely but just too old to be driving on busy roads.  It has done an amazing 32,000 miles. I need to replace the windscreen washer motor but, need to know which model I have, in order to purchase a replacement? Is it a MkIII or Mk IV?

Can you advise me how do I tell?

    If you quote the number plate to your local motor factor they will know which part you need. Aftermarket pumps are readily available, and often substantially cheaper than genuine Ford items.

    Hi

    Finally got round to taking the windscreen water resevoir off, to replace the pump. Hit a problem! Got the point of undoing the two final bolts holding the resevoir in place. One under the wheel arch and the second is meant to be on the door pillar, accessed from inside the car, with door ajar.  There's nothing there! 

    Anyone know where the second bolt to release the water resevoir is?

    Here's the Youtube video Ive beeing using? Any ideas where I might find the second bolt?
