Subject:Re: Frozen Windshield Washer Fluid Tip

I've found too that the cheap crap blue stuff thats .99 cents a gallon will freeze, despite what the label says. It won't freeze in the tank, but it will freeze in the lines to the wipers. The last few years I've used the Rain-X windshield solution.

Neil the "bad" car owner, left a mostly water mix in the wiper fluid
tank of his Honda. Yah. It froze. You really miss that feature when
it's not working!

Inadvertently parked in an underground lot today which solved the
problem. Much warmer there.

So if you left water in your Vanagon wiper washer tank.......
