Windex as cleaning fluid?
Yes i searched, all be it not very hard but i did 
Anyway i was woundering if it's detrimental in any way to the windshield wiper fluid system if i was to use windex in it?
ie. the pump or the lines that run to the hood?

It's okay but I wouldn't pull that **** in the winter time.
It's just a water pump basically, there's nothing big about it.
Though windshield wiper fluid is specially formulated to A) Not streak/dry up fast, and B)NOT freeze in the winter time. Windshield wiper fluid freezes beyond freezing.

Doesn't a smaller bottle of windex cost more than the real stuff? I just saw washer fluid at advance auto on sale for 2 for a dollar. You bet your *** I bought 20 of those bottles 2 days ago 
I'm sure it wouldnt be all the great for love bugs but that yearly time has passed and all I have is bird **** and road grime to deal with. It does the job just fine. Walmart has it for $.87. Damn walmart and their 7's

Oh, have you heard of the offer from some car washes now? Rain-X for the windows... put on by an automated car wash. Which means it goes all over the car.
