68 442 windshield wiper motor
i bought a 442 recently and wipers or fluid pump doesn’t work. The car was a racer so lots of stuff has been disconnected for years. I tested the switch and have voltage at the motor. I made it move half a swipe but that’s it. Should I just buy a new motor and pump? Is there anything about the mechanism tovthe wiper arms that I should check / clean? Is it a coincidence that the pump and motor aren’t working? Thanks. —Billy.

Should be available. Check Fusick, Year One, Parts Place, OPG, Rock Auto or a Non Big Box parts house. Remember many of the 68 GM A-Bodies use many common interchangeable parts, Chevelle, Skylark, GTO. Hang on to the old assembly if that's a concern for you. If it has the white plastic washer pump its likely original or a very old replacement. Make sure all grounds are good and the connector contacts are clean. Lube the wiper arm transmission ball joints et al...
