The washer pump discharges fluid through hoses to metal "S" curve nozzles on the hood aimed at the windshield.  My nozzles are clogged.  Any ideas on how to unclog them?

Maybe blowing compressed air thru the hose that connects to the nozzles?
Good luck

It usually takes a wire like a paper clip. Run it through the small hole.  Normally I use a very small drill bit.

Look in the gas welding section of your favorite store that has a welding section.  They should have something called a tip cleaner.  Its sort of a pocket knife looking sort of thing that has various size wires and most of them have a slightly abrasive surface.   They are not very expensive, under $10.
