We have annoyed Canada and they are exacting their revenge for poking fun at those round pieces of ham they call bacon.

Perhaps an international peace gesture like buying the entire country coffee and baked goodies from Tim Hortons would appease them.

Tim Horton's donuts turns 50 years old this year, it started in Hamilton, Ontario. and those Wendy's folks bought it up a few years ago, you're welcome!!

as for the weather ,,per Fox 2 News and Weather in Detroit this polar vortex system has been pushed down from the Artic circle above the Bering Sea and Russia, across Alaska, down over the mid west and over to the east coast, so we Canuck's are just passing along the cold from Russia with love!!!

Make mine a double -double, and a maple dip donut please!!!!

I think that a metal tube install in the windshield wash fluid container with radiator water circulating through it to keep the wash fluid warm would do the trick?

I've heard of that mod used in hyper cold locations like Alaska and Canada's Northwest Territories, but if I have to resort to it in NC, I'm moving to Hawaii Bob.

As an update, the bottles/reservoirs came yesterday via UPS, now I just have to install them and see if the pumps survived, if they did...yay. If they didn't, oh well, time to order up new ones.

Update time...

Well I wasn't "lucky" enough to just crack the washer fluid reservoirs, as Don suspected, all three pumps are cracked too.

So if you do something dumb like I did, the part number for the windshield washer fluid pump is (GM pn 10355743). It fits all model years with a dealer list price of $66.24ea.

Fortunately, I do have a spare "good" pump from the piles of parts that will eventually take the form of my now disassembled '07 Panel.

They go for less than $39 on Ebay.
