Can anyone tell me the routing for the vacuum hoses for the factory windshield wipers and factory windshield washers on a '52 V-8? Is there only one hose that goes to the vacuum motor ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

On my 53 there is only one hose to the vacuum motor. It starts below the carb, into the grommet at firewall and through the firewall, then it turns and goes toward the drivers side and over the receiver at the vacuum motor. Not sure about the washer hose. It is separate from the wiper motor hose. Hope this helps. Charles
 
The washer depends on which style you have. My 53 has the foot pump version, which has nothing to do with engine vacuum. The nozzle for mine is in the middle rear of the hood. I have seen a 53 Mercury with what looked like vacuum powered squirts and the nozzles for it was in the wiper arm bases.
