Default Am I the only one with low washer nozzle pressure?

I've got a 99 Civic Coupe... and the pressure of the washer nozzles suck...does anyone know how to fix this?
I'm driving and cant wash the windshield coz the fluid just sprinkles the bottom of the windshield and I have to keep spraying till the wipers get wet enough to clean the bottom anyone have the same issue?

this is my guess. and while you are at it you might need to aim them.

nozzles not even hooked up in my car cuz i never use em, but if you can somehow make the holes in the nozzle smaller or get ones that are smaller than what you have rite now (no LEDs please), then you will probably get a stronger spray without having to change anything else.

pull the line off of the nozzle and see if it has pressure then, if it does just get some new nozzles, just make sure they dont light up.... if it doesn't, get a new pump or just carry a squeegie around with you
