Question Windscreen washer jet funny business

Looking for advice on trouble shooting the following:

When windscreen wash applied, comes thru 3 out of four jets at reduced force, and when switch releases, continues to dribble out at just enough pressure to hit the 'screen for 5-10 seconds or so..messy!

Simply a case of new washer fluid pump? No obvious blocks/disconnected pipes.

If it was an old bloke with the same symptoms, I'd be recomending a prostate check

I've had the dribbling problem - but can't remember what the solution was. I've had two problems I fixed on my washer system so I guess it was one of those.

1) I had a leak - the arm connecting the wipers had sawed part way through a pipe.

2) I also have intensive wash system and the one way valves had failed.
