Default P38 windshield washer problems

When I push the front windshield wash button, the motor is audible but no fluid sprays out. I've topped off the reservoir, no luck. I've also used a small sewing needle to clean out any potential blockage in the nozzles, but still no luck (worked like a charm on my BMW). Is there anything else I need to know or should try? It is a 97 4.0SE

I have a similar problem, the fluid dribbles instead of squirts. I bought a new washer pump online. Should take all of 15 minutes to replace it. Before I install it, when I disconnect the washer jet line from the pump I am going to put some aquarium hose I have laying around on it and confirm its a bad pump or clogged hose. I've seen replacement jets available as well and I've seen one person fix his problem by replacing his. But I put my money on a worn out pump.
