Rear Window wash leaks on a slope ? cure. was created by teafortwo0789
When I park the Jimny nose up on a slope, the rear washer leaks and siphons off all the washer fluid, leaving me with an empty bottle.\!!! 
On a previous topic I complained at the rather small washer bottle. Any thoughts as to the cure / cause?

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

There should be a spring loaded one way valve near to the rear nozzle, to stop the fluid running back to the tank, it takes a bit of pressure to let the fluid out, to stop the jet dribbling.
Sounds like it is missing or the spring has given up.
I dont know exactly where it is I'm afraid....

I would have thought it was in inline valve, if there isn't one, perhaps you could get one from a motor factors and fit it inside the rear door.
