  1. No. Just takes a bit of a jiggle to free it from the "yolk" on the forward side of the firewall. Maybe different on your model though.
  2. I removed the wiper air motor off my Bro's R600 Econodyne today (approx 1976 DOM) as the wipers ceased working all together. Easy to remove, two airlines and two bolts and a little juggle freed it from the receptacle in front of the firewall. Thankfully nothing to detach from the rear as the heater assy would have needed to be removed. Didn't record the make of the motor though it has a flap in the motor that oscillates in an approx 100 deg arc. I'd call it a swing motor. Was full of gunk that washed out relatively easy with solvent. There was a lot of play in the swing flap shaft and bushing and the sealing Oring had hardened with age. This allowed air to escape to both sides of the flap stopping any motion. In the fullness of time I will machine a new bronze bush. I renewed the Oring with the best fitting one I could find and following lubing averything with silicon spray I reassembled and refitted it to the rig. The wipers are working great now though they are not parking, something more to investigate. Cheers Graz
