Question type: Maintenance & Repair

when you hit the washer switch for the front is has water come out the back, the wipers come on but the water only comes out every once in a great while. I have had the lines check and blown out and it still dose it. when you hit the washer for the rear it works like it should. how can I fix this problem?

Also check for crimped hose from tank to washer jets. Have seen some that would get crimped when hood was closed.
