I have put a one-way valve in line not far from the bonnet jet connection, to try and break the remaining water supply up- yet it is still daffodil itself on braking.
Can anybody help, or advise on the best place to put the one-way valve. As I have seen some people say they have used a valve and it works perfectly.

you coudl try looping the pipe down into more of a U shape, apart from that i dont think theres much you can do?
some kind of pressure valve would do it, but i dont know where you can get one which will be set so that it will only open with pressure from the pump but not from braking force…
or perhaps some kind of solenoid valve operated from the wiper power, but again not sure if you can get em suitable for washer hoses…

as you may reduce the pressure too much. Liquid does not like sharp turns…

I've also tried putting loops and a coil into the hose system.
This must be a common problem for anybody doing this conversion ey!

past the crimp ? Not sure how much pressure these pumps have though…

I'm gonna tie a series of knots at the point where the pipe travels from the floor plan to the bonnet, to try and reduce the pace and pressure of the water travelling full length of the car upon braking.

I have put 2 90degree plastic connectors within the pipe just as it travels up and into the engine- making a Z shape. This is reducing the flow of water on breaking as it travels down the car, preventing any dribbling.
