In the first 124, I tried to clean the squirters with anything and everything.   No squirty!   I bought a couple new uns from Q, and alles ist squirty, and still good some 10-12 years later.   I think you are hosed on this, unless you happen to find some good ones at bob's your knacker.

The squirters on the $600E320 don’t. I took one apart some time ago to try to clean it. Nothing I tried — reaming, soaking, high pressure air — got it to pass squirter fluid. Totally clogged or blocked or something. I pulled 4 at the knacker Some time ago and tried a couple this afternoon. The

Agreed. Find a blue hair car from the late 90s/early 00s and you should be good. Buicks of that time frame are pretty bulletproof. Mother in law had one she sold off to a friend when the father in law bit it, and she took over “his” car, also a later model nicer Buick. She barely puts $100/year
