i don't think it'll work 700

I'm not sure if they'll work or not, but I do know that my own (1990 740) has it such that the nozzles are different on the left and right, and are thus not interchangeable.

I too have the clogged problem. The last time I cleared it out by asking the guy at the mechanics place to hook up a compressor to the rubber hose and 'flush' it out with air. And that worked. But this time, I've been unsuccessful. I've tried poking at them with needles as well. No good.

I'm going to bite the bullet and buy replacement nozzles for about $3.50 a piece from either www.newandusedvolvoparts.com www.ips-parts.com or somewhere else, and then I'm going to either get the washer filter (available from www.ipdusa.com for about $8-10... i don't think it's in their online catalog, so you'll have to call) OR I'm going to do a mod on it, by just going to Autozone and picking up a really really really cheap fuel filter and slipping it in the washer line before the T valve.

You should definitely check the T valve first. I already replaced that, and it wasn't fixed, so I know my nozzles are shot.
