Default Is my scooby haunted?

My scoob has developed a strange affliction of late. As it's got 500 miles on the forged pistons now, I decided to give it some beans in second (purely in the interest of research) to see if it pulled ok on WOT up to about 6k. Upon doing this I noticed the washer jets had squirted fluid about an inch or two up the screen, with it running down the bonnet. I thought I must have caught the button or summat. Since repeating the experiment a couple of times since (again purely in the interest of research, honest ok?) it still doing it and leaving fluid running across the bonnet, arrgghh what a pain when its clean. Am I victim to a known problem, is it haunted or after two years of my ownership is it crying everytime I get behind the wheel?

Good spot joey, pipes for washers/IC spray are identical.

I actually use my IC spray to feed the washers now as I needed the space under the bonnet for other parts....

It is a bit silly to have to grope for the IC spray button every time tho'.

HTH

Noooooooooooooo. It's a WRX and its pi***ng out of the washer jets, all over the bonnet and up the screen an inch or two. It's like youv'e punched the washer button by mistake if you know what I mean. It's driving me apes*** as it's only when booting it that it seems to spew forth!!
