Stephen,

On my '87 Westy, non-Syncro, the washer comes on when you hold the stalk
forward. You should be able to push it forward and let go to activate the
rear window wiper. If that's not working, the contact ring under your
steering wheel likely needs to be cleaned.

You could empty the reservoir too, like Karl so seriously suggested, but
you'd probably spill washer fluid on your bed . . . :^)
