    I bought a 359 Peterbilt, 1986

    The washer fluid tank was removed when I purchased the truck, I looked and can not see anywhere where it should mount. Just wondering where the tank mounts?? Thanks!

    The 86's i had were behind the passenger seat but i guess they could be either side. They were air powered and if the line plugged/froze it would blow the top off and spray fluid all over the inside of the truck.

    I've got a 1980 359 short hood. The reservoir is behind the driver's seat. It doesn't seem to have air to it. Is there a valve that cuts off supply to it? Would it be more practical to put an electric pump in the reservoir to keep from having washer fluid spray all over the cab if there's ever a clog?
