Slow day so did some work on my 02 parts T Bird. Removed the windshield wipers, cowl, replaced the cabin air filter, and vacuum
the leaves out of the fresh air box. Cleaned everything up, replaced a few missing plastic fastners, painted the windshield wiper
arms, and installed new plastic caps on the wiper nuts.

To good a car now to call a parts car anymore.

I know this post has been out for a while, but I will be removing and re-sealing my cowl and this is the best illustration of my situation. I'm wondering if I need to disconnect the windshield washer tube in order to flip the cowl cover to access it and if so, at what location do I disconnect it? Picture #4 is kind of confusing.
 
After you remove the cowl cover the washer hose can be disconnected at the washer fluid hose connector.
