Washer reservoir on 1973 911

Post by abhoyroo »

Can anybody help, I am trying to locate a washer reservoir for my 1973 911 since it did not come with the car. I have found the pump, but I am having problem finding a reservoir.

Hi, the obvious answer would be eBay. They're rare, but they sometimes make an appearance!
I've heard that, if you cant find one, you can use some FIAT bags from the 500 model.
There's also a reservoir from the french company Norauto. It's a modern reservoir brick-like, but the oppening wont'n fit Porsche hole... the water must be placed from the inside, near the reserve tyre. You'd also have to change the pump as well. But its a cheaper solution than an original Porsche reservoir: about 50 Euro for both parts, here in Portugal.

Yeah, that bag is probably similar to the FIAT one I've mentioned.
