1 Background

This document aims to provide some information regarding the NASCO

windshield washers fitted to FB and EK Holdens. It contains
 historical information, such as which washers were advertised for different
model Holdens,
 practical information on identification, disassembly and reassembly of FB and
EK Holden washers, and
 guidance on replacement parts and overhaul techniques.
It contains answers to many of the questions that seem to come up routinely on
most of the early Holden forums:
“Where do I connect the washer hoses to?”
“Is anyone making aftermarket washer nozzles?”
“My washers are don’t work anymore… can I replace them?”

The FB and EK Holden Nasco windshield washers that are the subject of this
document are:
 Manufactured by Trico, and
 Have a glass washer bottle.

Whilst this document is primarily related to the FB and EK Holden NASCO

windshield washers, much of the information is similar or identical to other early
Holden washers. Please bear in mind that the NASCO windshield washers are
more than half a century old, and that very little documentation is known to exist
other than references in parts manuals, installation instructions and Accelerator
magazines (despite much hunting by enthusiasts, and both FE/FC and FB/EK
Clubs). Much of the information below is drawn from internet forums, discussion
with enthusiasts and common sense. I have used photos and other information
from a wide variety of sources, particularly from the forums – if anyone is
offended by my use of the material, feels I have breached copyright or needs
recognition, please let me know and I will correct the issue immediately.

I would however like to thank the following for their patience and willingness to
help me learn:
 Laurie Scott from Victoria. Laurie wrote an article relating to MG Magnette ZA
and ZB windshield washers, which are very similar to those fitted to FB/EK
Holdens. The article was published first in 36,000, the former Journal of the
MGCC Z-Register, Issue No. 22 & 23, and is available here:
http://www.mgcars.org.uk/mgccz/technic/windscreen_washers.pdf
I have paraphrased much of the article in this enthusiasts guide, and include
many of Laurie’s line drawings.
 Tim Gall (who has pulled apart, put together, broken and fixed more FB/EK
gear than most),
 ACE (Chris) from the FE/FC forum for scans of the installation instructions.
 Chris Skinner, for information on Studebaker windshield washers.

Page 3 of 53
Equally, I have made opinions and drawn conclusions on some of the information
I have found and equipment I have owned - if anyone believes that I have made
an error (or knows a better way to do something), please let me know and I will
update the document... after all, the main purpose here is to help other early
Holden enthusiasts. I have marked some text in red in this document where I am
missing information – any help in closing these gaps is appreciated. A good
example here is the operation of the foot pumps – any info on foot pumps would
be great.

Like all things automotive, installing, operating and maintaining a NASCO

windshield washer comes with a risk. Leaking vacuum lines can rob brake
boosters of power, and poor firewall connections can let in exhaust fumes
(amongst other hazards). Any advice contained in this document is to be taken at
the reader’s risk – qualified mechanics should be consulted where appropriate.

2 Identifying the “Correct” Windshield Washer
Early Holden windshield washers offered by NASCO are generally of one of
three types:
 “Foot operated”, where a pump is mounted inside the cabin floor adjacent to
the brake pedal. The pump draws water from a glass bottle mounted in a
steel bracket, which was located on the driver’s side of the engine bay. The
water was pumped up to various nozzles which sprayed onto the windshield.
 “Vacuum operated”, where a vacuum pump is mounted on top of the glass
bottle mounted in a steel bracket, which was located on the driver’s side of
the engine bay. The pump used a combination of spring pressure and engine
vacuum to pump water up to various nozzles which sprayed onto the
windshield.
 “Electric operated”, where an electric pump was used to spray water onto the
windshield.

The FB/EK Holden electric washers are somewhat of a mystery, with only one
vehicle being known to have had them fitted (a vehicle once owned by Tim Gall)
The FB/EK Holden electric washer part number (7421835) was introduced after
the EJ Holden foot pump unit but before the EJ Holden electric unit. It could well
be that the accessory electric kits weren't available at the EJ Holden release,
even though the EJ Premier had the electric washers from the start.
Supercesions occur like this quite often - for example the FE/FC foot pump type
(7406683) wasn't made until after the FB release, and has a later part number
than the FB unit (7406685).
Having said that, a number of FB and EK Holdens are fitted with electric washers
that may (or may not) be original. As an example, the following photos were
taken from an FB/EK forum member (Matto)’s vehicle:

Some interesting things from Matt’s photos:

 The bottle and pump shape is identical to LJ/LH/LX Torana. The bottle has
no markings on top (some Toranas had black labeling noting the use of
solvent). Matt’s bottle has pint markings down the side which Torana
bottles do not. The use of pint markings would infer the bottle at least
predates LH Torana, where both litres and pints were printed on top of the
bottle. Matt’s photos show a red and white sticker on the front of the bottle
which are not present in Toranas.
 The chrome switch bracket is a great fit for the location where bonnet
release cables are fitted to EK Holdens. The button has been replaced at
some stage (marks on the bracket show an original round shaped button).
 The nozzle location is correct for EK Holden.

This could well be the legendary FB/EK electric washers… or at least some parts
of them.

Page 6 of 53
Notwithstanding the above, some windshield washers may have been fitted by
dealers from old stock-on-hand, so it is possible that previous-model washers
were supplied to current-model cars. Additionally, some washers were not
available when a car was released, but were supplied retrospectively by NASCO
(see the FE/FC foot pump type above). Further, a number of other aftermarket
windshield washers were available for early Holdens. To make life even more
difficult, early Holden enthusiasts have fitted many different windshield washers
to different models over the years. The upshot of all this is that although the
above information should act as a guide, it is not unusual (nor necessarily
“unoriginal/non-genuine”) for different types of windshield washers to be fitted to
a given model Holden.

3 Manuals, Documents and Records
The following provides some information on the documentation known to exist for
FB/EK windshield washers. Of note, the “artwork” used in many Holden and
NASCO publications is often incorrect – examples will be pointed out as they
occur in the text below.

3.1 Holden “FB” Parts Catalogue

The Holden “FB” Parts Catalogue indicates that two
windshield washers were available from Holden:
a) The “Washer Package – Vacuum Operated”, part
number 7414175, and
b) The “Washer Package – Foot Operated”, part
number 7406685.
The catalogue shows a line drawing of an operating
windshield wiper and washer, with the washer nozzle
being mounted on the cowl separately from the washer
pivot spacer. It is likely that few if any FB Holdens were
sold with separate cowl-mounted nozzles, as these
were discontinued in the FE Holden line. It is probable
that the Holden FB Parts Catalogue artwork thus may
be a hangover from the FJ (!) Holden sales process.

3.2 FB Holden NASCO Car Accessories brochure

The FB Holden NASCO Car Accessories brochure

indicates that a “windshield washer” was available, with
the following text:
“Foot or hand operated types available. Touch a button
and twin jets spray windshield with water – wipers
remove all dirt, insects etc.”.
The accompanying drawing points to the windscreen
wiper pivot arm spacers.
Note that the picture to the right merges two pages from
the brochure.

3.3 EK Holden NASCO Car Accessories brochure

The EK NASCO Car Accessories brochure is

identical to the FB brochure with respect to the
windshield washer text. The accompanying drawing
however points to a nozzle in the centre of the
windshield. Note that the picture to the right again
merges two pages from the brochure.

3.4 Holden Shop Manual “FB” Series
Whilst the Holden Shop Manual “FB” Series deals mainly with windshield
wipers (rather than washers), it does have some subtleties in the line drawings
and photographs provided.

Figure 1-30 (left-hand upper picture below) shows the windshield wiper pivot and
connector arm installation. The pivot shaft spacer (part number 7402944) is
shown, with both the grub screw and inlet pipe indicated. The pivot shaft spacer
is again pictured in Figure 1-31 (lower picture below).
Figure 1-32 (Right-hand upper picture below) shows the windshield wiper control.
The windshield washer connection (when fitted as an accessory) is highlighted.

Page 9 of 53
3.5 Holden Shop Manual “EK” Series
Similarly to the FB manual, the Holden Shop Manual “EK” Series deals mainly
with windshield wipers (rather than washers), though again has some subtleties
in the line drawings and photographs provided.

Figure 1-30 (left-hand upper picture below) shows the windshield wiper pivot and
connector arm installation. The pivot shaft spacer (part number 7418773) is
shown. Note that it is different from the FB spacer shown above, having neither
the grub screw nor inlet pipe. The EK pivot shaft spacer is again pictured in
Figure 1-31 (lower picture below).
Figure 1-32 (Right-hand upper picture below) shows the windshield wiper control.
Note that the switch for the washers has been deleted as compared to the FB
manual.

3.6 EK Holden Owners Manual
The EK Holden Owners Manual has no information with respect to windshield
washers.

3.7 GMH Master Parts Catalogue

The GMH Master Parts catalogue (20 Years of Holden Production) lists the
part numbers given in Section 13 below.

3.8 Accelerator Magazines

Unfortunately, I have been unable to gain access to any scans of Accelerator
Magazines. If anyone is willing to make some copies, they would certainly be
appreciated for an update of this document.

4 Vacuum Windshield Washer Operation
The name windshield vacuum washer is derived from the fact that the energy
used to direct the twin streams of water onto the windshield is drawn or powered
from the partial vacuum that exists at the car’s inlet manifold. The inlet manifold
ducts air/fuel mixture into the engine. The speed at which the air/fuel mixture
flows into the engine causes pressure loss, which causes the pressure at the
inlet manifold to be lower than the atmospheric air outside the engine (i.e. the
inlet manifold is under partial vacuum).

4.1 Components

Vacuum is sourced by either teeing into the vacuum line between the vacuum
pump and the windscreen wiper motor (FE, FC and FB Holdens) or teeing
directly into the inlet manifold (EK Holdens, which have no separate vacuum
pump). Vacuum is then connected to the vacuum control switch on the
dashboard, and from there to the vacuum pump of the washer unit. The vacuum
source, vacuum control switch and vacuum pump of the washer unit are
connected together by special rubber tubing that will not collapse (flatten) by the
suction created by the vacuum. Water is stored in a glass jar (sometimes referred
to as a bottle) which is held firmly in a steel bracket (sometimes referred to as a
cage). The bracket is mounted on the driver’s side inner fender skirt (sometimes
referred to as an inner guard). Attached to the removable screw top metal lid of
the jar are the pump (with steel vacuum connection, brass water connections and
brass filter), and a pivoted (sheetmetal) filler cap. Vacuum applied to the pump

Page 12 of 53
causes water to be sucked from the glass jar into the internals of the pump. On
removal of the vacuum spring pressure in the pump forces the water out of the
pump. The water is connected to the washer jets by flexible rubber tubing. The
washer jets are either located on the windshield wiper pivot arm spacers (FE, FC
and FB Holdens) or in a hole in the bonnet (EK Holdens). The water passes
through nozzles in the jets which have a small opening, forcing the water into
streams which strike the windshield.

4.2 Washer Pump Construction

A simplified drawing of the washer pump is given below, together with a
description of the basic functions of the washer pump components.

4.4 Principle of operation

With the washer system in the unoperated state,

the pump is in the condition as shown in the
diagram to the right.

The vacuum control is as shown below.

By pressing the vacuum control button in and

holding it in, the opening to atmosphere is
closed by the button, and vacuum valve is
driven open as shown in the diagram to the
right.

Engine vacuum now sucks through the open

vacuum valve and through the vacuum pipes
to the pump. As the vacuum applied to the
pump begins to lower the pressure inside the
pump, the diaphragm is sucked upwards
against the tension in the compression spring
(see diagram to the right).

The suction caused by the upward movement

of the diaphragm forces water to be drawn
from the storage jar, passing through the filter,
up the extension and into the now vacant
space caused by the diaphragm’s upward
movement. In moving into the lower part of the
pump, the water has easily pushed past valve
(A). Valve (A) is designed to pivot out of the
way for water moving upwards. At the same
time, valve (B) is driven more firmly shut by the
suction, preventing air or water being drawn into the pump from the washer
nozzle piping.

Page 15 of 53
With the vacuum control button still pressed,
the vacuum draws the diaphragm upwards
until the coil spring is completely compressed
(see diagram to the right). Water stops being
drawn into the body of the pump once the
diaphragm has moved to the maximum
upward position – the pump is now full.

The vacuum control button, having been

held in for a few seconds, is now
released (see diagram to the right).
Releasing the vacuum control button
frees Valve (A) to swing shut and seal
off the vacuum source. The button and
attached seal move back under spring tension (not shown), leaving the
atmospheric opening clear. Normal atmospheric air flows into the atmospheric
opening and along to the pump.

The air returns the pump cavity to

atmospheric pressure (breaks the vacuum).
The pump now begins it’s pumping action –
the combined effects of the incoming
atmospheric pressure and the tension in the
compressed compression spring begin to
move the diaphragm down against the water
contained in the pump. The pressure applied
to the water closes Valve (A) and easily
pivots open Valve (B) to drive water out of the
outlet pipe (see diagram to the right). The
diaphragm, although continuously applying
pressure to the water, can only move down
slowly due to the small amount of water that
can be pushed out of the pump through the
small washer nozzle holes.

Page 16 of 53
When the compression spring is fully
decompressed, the pumping is complete
and Valve (B) will swing closed (see
diagram to the right).

It should be noted that the pump action

cannot be stopped once commenced,
although operation of the vacuum control
would provide a temporary halt.

Page 17 of 53
5 Pivot Shaft Spacers
For FE, FC and FB Holdens, the washer nozzles are mounted
on the pivot shaft spacers. The pivot shaft spacers are the D-
shaped chromed part at the base of the windshield wiper arms.
The underside of the pivot shaft spacer has a brass tube
attached to it. Rubber hose to supply water is fitted to the brass
tubes. The water flows through the inside of the pivot shaft
spacer to a threaded hole in the side of the spacer. The
threaded hole is fitted with a grub screw. To fit windshield washers, the grub
screws are taken out and replaced with screw in nozzles that directed water onto
the windshield. All FE, FC and FB Holdens were fitted with pivot shaft spacer
ready for windshield washers. The pivot arm spacers are normally fitted such that
the nozzles are on the outside of the pivot arms.

FE and FC Holden pivot arm spacers are pictured in the image below to the right.
They have one grub screw per spacer (normally outboard), bent copper pipes
and a wedge D-shaped body). FE/FC pivot arm spacers have a “notch” (that
corresponds to an index tab on the pivot arm shaft) at the 6 o’clock position.

FB Holdens pivot arm spacers are part number 7402944 (see image below to the
left). They have two grub screws per spacer (one inboard and one outboard),
straight copper pipes and a flat D-shaped body. FB Holden pivot arm spacers
have a “notch” at the 2’oclock position.

Note that EK Holdens have their own pivot shaft spacer (part number 7418773).
The EK Holden pivot shaft spacer looks identical to the FB Holden one, but has

Page 18 of 53
neither brass tubes nor the threaded holes/grub screws. The EK Holden washer
nozzles were instead fitted to a hole in the middle of the bonnet.

6 Nozzles
A variety of nozzle were offered for windshield washers:
 FE and FC Holdens with vacuum washers used part number 7406027
 FB Holdens with vacuum washers used part number 7406569
 EK Holdens with vacuum washers used part number 7419027
 FB and EK Holdens with electric washers used part number 7421873

The original FE and FC Holden nozzles are sort of a cone-shaped affair, maybe
5/16" across, with a threaded section at one end and a pin-hole in the side of the
top. The top of the 'cone' has a hexagonal head, reminiscient of the screw-on
fitting at the end of a capuccino frother on an espresso machine!


Some options are available to replace the original nozzles.

Legend has it that many British vehicles have washer nozzles that will fit early
Holdens. However, not all fit (MGB for example do not). Rover P6 nozzles (see
photo below to the left) will fit into the FE, FC or FB Holden windshield wiper
pivot arm spacers. For FE/FC pivot arm spacers, the barbed connection is
carefully cut off with a hacksaw (see photo below to the right), after which the
nozzle will screw directly into the pivot arm spacers.

Page 19 of 53
For FB pivot arm spacers, the small nozzle (shown hanging below the
assemblies in the picture below) are unscrewed from the Rover P6 nozzles and
screwed straight into the FB pivot arm spacers (this is because the thread size in
the FB spacers is smaller than the thread size in the FE/FC spacers). One issue
in doing this for FB Holdens is that the nozzles can then only be adjusted up and
down the windscreen (using both parts of the Rover P6 nozzles ala FE/FC
Holdens allows both up/down and left/right adjustment). However, by fitting the
Rover P6 nozzles to the inboard position of the FB Holden wiper pivot arm
spacer, fairly good windshield alignment can be obtained. The Rover P6 nozzles
are available from Mark Richmond at dmspares@internode.on.net.

A further option involves modifying the Holden windshield wiper pivot arm
spacers. After removing the original grub screw from the pivot spacers, they can
be drilled and tapped to a 6mm metric thread. A grease nipple is then fitted after
picking out the check-ball in the end of the nipple. Different angle grease nipples
can be used to align the spray pattern on various parts of the windshield, though
like the FB Holden/P6 nozzle example above only up/down adjustment is
possible without changing to a different angle grease nipple.

Page 20 of 53
7 Vacuum-operated Washer Pump
The pump casing has a diecast top and a pressed brass bottom which are
crimped together. A disassembled pump is shown below. The water outlet fitting
(3/8” AF) is able to be removed from the pump unit, and contains the water outlet
ball check valve. The water inlet fitting however does not screw out from the
pump casing bottom (despite being gasketed, it is peined in place).

Page 21 of 53
8 Vacuum Control Valve
The vacuum control valve is mounted behind the windshield wiper control switch.
It uses the original windscreen wiper control, knob and grub screw as fitted to all
FB/EK Holdens from the factory. The knob continues to rotate to turn the
windshield wipers on and odd. The washer “button” (labeled as the washer
control push rod below) is mounted into the centre of the existing knob after
pushing out the existing black knob centre. A small spiral spring is used to return
the button to the off position. The button (and attached push rod) can be a tight fit
in the plastic knob. This may make the button sticky to operate, which can be

heard as a hissing sound when the button is released with the car running (the
manifold vacuum sucks air through the atmospheric vent… the vehicles engine
will run leaner). It may be necessary to drill out the knob by hand to fit the button,
to gently file back the hexagonal flats/corners of the rod to get a smooth fit (the
small spiral spring should be able to return the button freely). In any case, a small
smear of Vaseline inside the knob can help smooth out the operation.

Note that the body of the vacuum valve is cast alloy, and very susceptible to
stress cracks. The valve should be handled gently. It is recommended that the
valve body be given a coat of clear finish to help hold it together and prevent
vacuum leaks (a couple of coats of clear nail polish works well).

Anecdotally, FB Holdens and earlier EK Holdens (pre-April 1962) used a two-

speed windscreen wiper switch (part number 1998657). Later EK Holdens used a
single speed switch (part number 1993563). The June 1962 General Motors
Dealer Service Bulletin H-198 (pictured below) shows the changes. The two
switches are pictured below.

Page 23 of 53
9 Jar and Bracket Assembly
The jar has a capacity of 1 litre, and is 45/16” square by
6” tall (including the neck). The neck is 3 5/8” diameter.
The lid is cadmium plated with a waxed cardboard liner
insert.
The same jar and bracket was used in the foot-operated
unit, though it did not have the vacuum canister on the
top. According to legend, there were a variety of the jars
used (including round jars), with some having raised
writing cast into them. The Jar and Bracket Assembly
(foot operated unit) for FE, FC, FB, EK (M) Right
Hand Drive is part number 7406690.

Page 24 of 53
10 Vacuum and Pressure Hoses
The original vacuum hoses were black ribbed rubber.

When the water (pressure hoses) are connected to the windshield wiper pivot
shaft spacers (for FE, FC and FB Holdens), the hoses run inside the cabin,
before passing through the firewall grommet and connecting to the pump outlet
(i.e. water flows from the engine bay, into the cabin, out of the cabin and onto the
windshield). By having the hose/pivot arm spacer pipe connection inside the
cabin, there is a potential that any leaks can spray the back of the instrument
cluster or glovebox. This is particularly a risk if the water hoses are just slipped
on to the pivot arm spacer pipes. Access to the connection is tucked right up
under the dash. Some options for ensuring a good seal are:
 Using silicone to seal the water pipes to the pivot arm spacer tubes. This is
best done by taking the pivot arm spacers off the wiper assembly and fitting
the tubes/silicon off the vehicle. The tubes are then passed through the cowl
as the pivot arm spacers are refitted. This can be difficult if thick tubing is
used.
 Using small hose clamps, fitted from under the dash. Not the easiest thing to
fit upside down in a confined space...
 Fitting a barbed end to the pivot arm space tubes. This process was originally
proposed by Ed Ho. The barbed ends can be sourced by buying a 4mm
plastic barbed tee or cross fitting used for garden watering systems (from
Bunnings or nurseries). To fit the barb:
1 Place the tee or cross fitting in a vice and drill out the barbed end to suit
the outside diameter of the pivot arm spacer tubes (use a drill of 1/8”
diameter). It’s a lot easier to drill out the fitting before the barb is cut off.
2 Cut the barbed end off the tee fitting and slip it over the pivot arm spacer
tubes, using some superglue to hold it in place.
3 Use 4mm garden watering system hose (also from Bunnings or nurseries)
or 4mm vacuum hose to connect the pivot arm spacers to the pump.

Silicon air hose for fish tanks (found at most pet shops) can also be used for
the water pipes. This material will not get brittle and crack over time.

Page 25 of 53
Installation of the pivot arm spacers is significantly easier without the cowl
vent in place for FC Holdens (this is covered on page 27 of the FC Holden
workshop manual under Front End Ventilator – essentially apply WD40 to the
nuts under the dash and on the control handle thread, unscrew anticlockwise
then undo the four nuts and bolts and lift the cowl vent out).

The picture below shows the hose routing for an EK Holden (in this case Tim
Gall’s EK sedan). I have coloured the hoses to make them easier to see as
follows:
 the vacuum hose from the manifold to the vacuum control is coloured
red.
 the vacuum hose from the vacuum control to the pump is coloured
blue.
 the water hose from the pump to the nozzles is coloured green.

13 The “Blown Diaphragm” Vacuum to Electric Conversion
The diaphragms in vacuum wiper pumps are notoriously fragile. The passing of
half a century has not been kind to the rubber in the diaphragms, and they readily
tear. As noted above, a blown diaphragm cannot be serviced. Having bought one
vacuum pump with an already blown diaphragm, and having blown a second
pump within days of installing it, it became apparent that they are not destined for
long service. An alternative is to put in an electric pump, though most modern
units look really out of place in an FB/EK Holden… and it is a shame to not use
all the cool period vacuum pump parts just because the
diaphragm is blown. With this in mind, my aim was to
convert a vacuum pump to an electric pump. The ideal
conversion should:
 be reliable (no use going to all that trouble only to
have the conversion crap itself),
 be made from parts readily available (no use using a
$500 BMW part),
 look as close to the original vacuum setup as
possible.
The process below shows how I went about it. It’s not
perfect, and any suggestions to make it better are happily received. The finished
product is shown in the picture above, alongside an original vacuum unit (the
vacuum unit is on the left of the picture). With a touch of black paint on the
electric motor (it looks very white in the picture), they will be very, very similar in
appearance.

a) Undo the pump mounting nut and remove the pump from the jar lid. Undo
the filter extension locknut and remove the filter assembly from the pump
casing. Remove the water outlet fitting from the pump casing, leaving only
the water inlet fitting attached as shown in the picture below:

Page 35 of 53
b) The picture to the right shows a small hole (next to
the drill bit) where I drilled out a pin. The pin holds
the inlet non-return valve internals in place... and
doesn’t need to be drilled out i.e. don’t bother
drilling it like I did (or trying to tap it out... it won’t
tap out).

c) Holding the casing gently, use a

hacksaw to cut off the water inlet
fitting where it meets the pressed
brass casing. Note that the
casing top is cast alloy – if you
put it in a vise, it will readily
crack. The picture to the right
shows the casing, the cut-off
water inlet fitting and the inlet
non-return valve internals that fall out.
d) Gently hold the pump casing and drill out the hole where the water inlet
fitting was. Drill out both the casing and the diaphragm below, slowly
moving up drill sizes. Don’t push too hard when drilling out the diaphragm
or you will drill out the through the casing top. Stop periodically to shake
out debris from the casing (bits of rubber diaphragm, brass shavings and
all the engine fumes that have condensed into white sand in the casing
over the last 50 years).

Page 36 of 53
e) Once the hole is big enough, the
remains of the diaphragm can be
pulled out, and the spring can be
unwound out of the hole (this bit is a
little fiddly and requires bent
screwdrivers, pliers, and lots of
patience).

f) I really wanted to use the pump

pictured to the right, because they
are readily available (from
SuperCheap, eBay etc) and fairly
priced. They are not ideal to use for
this job though, as the pump inlet
(suction) is not pointing “down” This
would mean having to fit an elbow to
the suction side of the pump.

Because of the above issues, I chose to use

a Fleet Windscreen Washer Pump (part
number FWP507, see picture to the lower
right), which is stocked as Rare
Spares/American Auto Parts part number
WWM.

g) Enlarge the hole in the base of the pump casing to

the desired diameter (in this case 30mm) with a
fine cut half-round file. Mark out and cut a recess
for the electric washer pump terminal block to also
fit as per the picture to the right. It is recommended
to make the holes a firm fit, as it will prevent having
to glue the pump casing on later (which makes it
more serviceable in the long run). The pump
casing shown to the right has had a run through
the grit blast cabinet to get it ready for some paint later.
h) To allow the cables to pass through the pump casing, drill out the pump
vacuum outlet. Extreme care (and very sharp drill bits) are required as the
pump top casing casting is very brittle, and will shatter readily (as mine
did...). If it shatters, epoxy it back together.
i) The aim with the power supply cable is to hide the wiring by making it look
like the vaccum supply hose. Rubber-insulated cable is available from
Jaycar (Electus Distribution WB-1534), which has two cores (one each for
power and earth). Another option is to thread some speaker cable
through a 4’ length of vacuum tube. The speaker cables would need to be

Page 37 of 53
 thin to fit through, and are probably marginal for the amount of current the
pump will draw. It is also pretty fiddly to thread the cable even with fine
speaker cable (I used some fencing wire and then fishing line to help pull
the speaker cable through... then changed my mind and used the Jaycar
cable). Make up the cable lead to a 4’ length.
j) Feed the cable ends through the
pump casing and terminate them. I
used a plastic end connector from
Jaycar (Electus PP-2062 2-way
automotive connector set) as it
connected neatly to the electric pump.
k) To mount the filter assembly, carefully file down the plastic barb on the
end of the new electric pump suction until the filter assembly will just
slideover it (tight is good) – see photo below right for the assembly
dummied up without the jar lid).

l) To help mount the electric pump, fit

a rubber grommet (from Repco or
Supersheap) to the jar lid (see
photo above left). Install the pump
through the grommet, and put a
washer over the pump suction (I
used an old cad-plated washer, but
a thin brass washer from Bunnings
would also do). Glue the filter assembly onto the pump suction line,
leaving the filter assembly nut loose for now (see picture above). Once
the glue has set, gently nip up the filter assembly nut (don’t overtighten
it... the glue will pull apart).
m) Mount the lid, pump and filter line assembly onto the glass
jar (it helps to hold the lot steady... having them roll
around on the bench is an invitation for the suction
assembly to crack off). Connect the electrical lead (as per
the photo to the right) then slide the pump casing down
over the electric pump. Provided the pump casing hole is
a good tight interference fit, there should be no need to
glue it in place. This will make it easy to replace the

Page 38 of 53
 electric pump motor or wiring if it fails later.

n) One of the difficulties in operating the electric pump

above the jar is that the pump does not have a flooded
(primed) suction. The electric pump does not have the
ability to suck up water from the jar (self prime).
To overcome this, a non-return valve is used to
keep water in the suction. I bought an inline
non-return valve from eBay (see picture to the
above right). As long as the system has no
leaks, it doesn’t matter whether the non-return
valve is on the pump suction or discharge. In
this case, I have chosen to put it on the pump
discharge with a short length of rubber tubing.
o) The washer assembly should now be looking like the following pictures
(note that an original vacuum unit is shown on the left hand side for
comparison).

p) The windscreen
wiper switch I have
used is the earlier
two-speed switch
(pre-April 1962, part
number 1998657).
The wiring of the
switch operates as
follows:

Page 39 of 53
 Position 1st Terminal 2nd Terminal
Off (fully anticlockwise) Isolated Isolated
1(middle click) Earthed through Earthed through switch
switch body/dash body/dash
2 (fully clockwise) Earthed through Isolated
switch body/dash

The washers/wipers will work as follows:

Position Wipers Washers
Off (fully anticlockwise) OFF OFF
1(middle click) ON ON
2 (fully clockwise) ON OFF
The wiring is achieved by connecting the 1st Terminal to the windscreen
wipers, and the 2nd Terminal to the new washer earth lead. The washer
positive lead is then provided power by connecting it to the accessory
position of the fusebox.

When selecting a terminal on the fusebox (located under the dash on teh
driver’s side of FB/EK Holden’s), two options are possible. under the dash
on the driver’s side).
 The connection can be made through the
15 amp turn signal/heater/backup fuse
(the lower one on the picture below) at
the back of the panel. Note that
connection to this fuse means that the
washers only have power when the
ignition is on.
 The connection can be made through
either the 15 amp stop/dome/radio fuse or the 15 amp horn/cigar
lighter fuse. Note that connection to either of these fuses will mean
the washers always have power, even if the ignition is off.

It is recommended that insulated terminals are used, as many of the

FB/EK Holden wiring terminals are bare, and easy to short.

Page 40 of 53
Note that it is not as easy to use the later two-speed switch (post-April
1962, part number 1993563) as it would turn the washers and wipers on
together all the time.

14 Other Windshield Washers

The photographs below indicate some of the windscreen washers fitted to

different model Holdens, and may assist in identifying some “swap meet
bargains”.

14.1 FE Holden

The FE Holden NASCO Accessories

brochure lists a “Screenclean” with the
following text:
“For effective automatic cleaning of dirty
windscreens while driving. Simply press
button on dash.”

Further text in the brochure indicates:

“SCREENCLEAN safer...easier all-weather driving. A press
of a button causes two jets of water to spray on to the
windscreen allowing the wiper blades to remove mud, insects
or road scum. It’s a great safety device.”
The accompanying drawing shows the windscreen wiper
button inside the cabin, and also points to two washer nozzles
mounted on the cowl inboard of the windscreen wiper pivot
arms.
http://www.members.tripod.com/sixties_holdens/fe/fenasco3.html

Early FE Holdens had windshield washer nozzles on the cowl as per the above,
even though most very early FE Holdens appear to have the drilled and tapped
windscreen wiper pivot arm spacer. It is probable that on the release of the FE
Holden the designed NASCO washers were not ready, so the FJ Holden unit
(which mounted the nozzles through the cowl) was carried over for a while. This
is not unusual, as Accelerator magazines of the period show a lot of accessories
are not advertised as being available until well after the FE Holden was released.

14.2 FC Holden
Unfortunately, I have been unable to gain access to any info on FC Holden
windscreen washers. If anyone is willing to make some copies, they would
certainly be appreciated for an update of this document.

Page 42 of 53
 14.3 EJ Holden
The EJ Holden NASCO Accessories brochure
lists a “Windshield Washer” with the following text:
“A quick, effective way of keeping windshield
sparkling clean at all times”

The accompanying drawing shows the windshield

washers operating from a single nozzle mounted in the back of the bonnet.
http://www.members.tripod.com/sixties_holdens/ej/ejnasco.html

EJ Holdens have the nozzle fitted to the bonnet behind

where the bonnet strip finishes. On the underside of the
bonnet there is a hole in the inner frame of
approximately 1” diameter for fitting the nozzle. EH
Holdens also had this hole in 1963 models though not
on 1964 models. EJ Holden nozzles are a small chrome
“bump” with two jets angled at the two areas of the windscreen.

14.4 EH Holden
The EH Holden NASCO Accessories
brochure lists a “Windshield Washer” with
similar text to the EJ Holden NASCO
Accessories brochure shown above:
“A quick, convenient way of keeping
windshield sparkling clear at all times”

The accompanying drawing shows the windshield washers operating from two
spray nozzles mounted through the cowl.
http://www.members.tripod.com/sixties_holdens/eh/ehnasco.html

The EH Windshield washers were also advertised on television as shown in the

clip below:
http://www.uniquecarsandparts.com.au/classic_car_commercials_holden_parts_
03.htm
The clip includes the following voiceover:
“NASCO windshield washers - a clear view at the touch of a button.”

Page 43 of 53
EH washer nozzles (pictured below upper right) pass through slots in the cowl
grille in front of the windscreen, usually just one in the centre. They pass through
the very top part of the firewall, just below the bonnet rubber strip at the back of
the bonnet. EH washers had a plastic washer jar (pictured upper left). The EH
foot-operated pump is shown (lower pictures).

The image to the right shows the

repair kit for HD/HR Holden Preslite
washer pumps, part number

14.6 HR Holden
The HD Holden Extra Holden Safety
Features brochure lists a “Clearview
windshield washer” with the following text:
“These highly efficient, twin nozzle electric
windshield washers are simple to operate:
no reaching with your foot for a hard-to-find
switch. A touch of your finger meters a
measured quantity of water on to the
windshield. The wipers switch on
automatically at the same time and clean
the windshield quickly and efficiently.”

The accompanying drawing shows the

windshield washers operating through a
spray nozzle mounted under the cowl (the position infers two nozzles though the
drawing only shows one).

 14.7 Other GM vehicles
TRICO manufactured windscreen washers for a significant number of vehicles.
Some examples where the washers are similar, if not identical to the FB/EK
Holden units are given below.

The windshield washer unit for some Studebakers (1963 parts pictured below)
appears to be identical to the vacuum washers for FB/EK Holdens.

The pump and bottle shown in the photo above is from a 1961-65 Australian-
assembled Studebaker Lark or Cruiser, which was used with a chrome push
button on the dash. It was the only type offered on local cars. The US-assembled
Studebakers used a foot pump with a plastic bottle (1961-63) or red vinyl bag
(1953-66). All of the American made parts are still available but are not
compatible with the Australian-assembled system. Note that the jar shown in the
right-hand image (which was being sold separately though by the same seller on
eBay for a 1963 Studebaker) is different from the jar in the left-hand three
images. The jar to the right is taller (more threads and a lip on top of the threads)
than the ones to the left. The jar shown in the left-hand images appears identical
to the FB/EK Holden jars.

The 1949/1950/1951 Buick windshield washer pump appears identical to the

vacuum washers for FB/EK Holdens. The unit below was listed as having been
fitted to a 1949 Buick Super four-door.

Note that the 1946-48 Buick,Cadillac and Lincoln Continental are also reported to
have similar windshield washer jar/bottles.
