You sure? We are talking 124. What about the heaters? is there a
plug that comes off the squirter, or do you take out a pigtail with
the squirter? The hole in the hood appears to be slotted, with the
front being smaller I didn't see any king of "legs" to clip it
in. I could slide the squirter front to back some, but nothing came
loose. I figured out how to get off the V connecter between the
squirter and the hose.
There is no wax in the nozzles. I can stick a pin 1/2" into each of
the 4 nozzles. there does not appear to be any obstruction there.

The squirters come out easy - I always took them off any time I waxed my cars.
They have two "legs" that stick out, one forward and one back. If
you have a pair of long needle nose pliers, remove the hose from
each carefully, then use the pliers to compress the "legs". If you
get one loose (above the hood) the other one is easy to free
up. You can also use a flat blade screwdriver and do one side at a time, too.
Use a fine needle to clear them out along with some air
pressure. I'll bet they're clogged with wax.
Replacements are cheap - I always kept a couple around just in case.
