windshield washer problem

my windshield washers are not working correctly...
-the right spray shoots off two sprays and fires too hard (it oversprays to the roof of the car and back to the hatch)
-the left spray shoots a much weaker spray(about half of it gets the the windshield while the other half seems to just flow down slope of the hood)

what do you think is wrong???

You need to adjust the nozzles. There are 2 sprayers that you need to adjust. I stuck a pin into the nozzles to lower or raise . If one is stronger than the other, it could be just clogged from years and years of car wax. Under the hood there are tabs that you can bend and pull out the nozzles but be careful as it might do more harm than good since the plastic tabs could break. Have someone spray and see where you need to adjust.

The nozzles have the jet holes mounted in adjustment *****.

Stick a pin in the hole & aim it anywhere you want.
