Rear screen wash wiper bottle

Hello, Just preparing my van for its MOT and the rear windscreen wash is not working. Having topped the bottle up the fluid appears to have leaked out into the back of the van and around the engine bay.

Problem with 1990 Automatic T25

At first we thought we may have a flat tyre as the drive felt wobbly and uneven. We reached our road and there was a clunk and a bang which sounded as though it was toward...
