Hello again  :),
at this time I need help with the correct windshield washer jar for my Sedan Deville 1956. Both of them are on ebay and description says they are for 56 Deville, but they are not the same. Which one is correct? Maybe somebody have the correct one for sale?

Search, "1955 washer jar" here.  The red top one is mine and I asked the same question. Some one said it for a 1954-55 only. I don't want you to buy the wrong set-up as I have done so in the past. Dave

Marius,

The 1956 are none-electric type, so the first listing is not the correct one, the second one looks to be the correct one.

The crankshaft pulley is the same for the dual type from 1952-1956 and triple type (A/C cars) from 1954-1956 per the MPL.

Are you referring to the vacuum assist pump which connects to the oil pump? If I recall these are compatible from 1956-1958. If yours is missing just make sure you get hex key that drives it.

Good luck..!

Marius, the pulley for the wiper motor is specific for 1956. If interested, I have a NOS wiper motor for 1956; it may be a little bit expensive. If you have a tired wiper motor, the wiper man can rebuild it. Sorry, I don't have the pulley.

Marius, as the wiper motor is in my store room, I will look the price the next time I'm there. The T junction for the heater hoses can be done with a tube and some welding or silver soldering.
The pulley for the wiper is an assembly with the base plate. This plate is attached to the car's body and the wiper motor is coming on top of the plate.
I suppose you are also missing the vacuum manifold, see the attached pictures.

It's the windshield washer coordinator. I just know that this element is not included with the wiper motor I have.
It seems that you are missing a lot of parts!
