It looks like the washer reservoir should just lift off the bracket but it doesn't move and I don't want to break the 31-year old plastic reservoir. Is there something else holding the reservoir or should it just lift up off the bracket? 90 LWB RS: 3 L/mt, JBaker springs, bushings, swaybars.

Might want to dribble a little dish soap down where the metal bracket slides in and rock the reservoir a bit to break the friction.

Takes some effort at the old plastic is not as flexible. But it is surprisingly tough for a vehicle made in 1989! 90 LWB RS: 3 L/mt, JBaker springs, bushings, swaybars.
