Pull the pipe off near the squirty - get a pint of water and blow it down the pipe the wrong way - empty the reservoir (the crud will be in there now). also check the squirty itself is not blocked. that can be "manually reverse flushed" too, or a piece of steel wire poked in the hole and wiggled around can do the trick.

sorted, was the actual nozzle that was stuffed - found out by putting a hose into the system from the front and it blew the hoses off the nozzle. so ran some water through that and sorted :D
