Default Windscreen washers (or sprinklers) on the XJ

I am battling to get a decent flow of washer fluid onto the windscreen of my '96 XJ. Quite frankly my Chihauha could pee on it and do a lot better. I have cleaned out the nozzles but there was no junk in there, but when trying to wash the windscreen it is a very weak effort that sprinkles on to the screen and only covers about the bottom third, and consequently the wipers start dry and smear any bugs all over the place.
Could the washer motor be at fault or maybe some other issue. The rear washer works real well, but then it doesnt have to squirt up the glass as it is delivered direct to the wiper blade.

Any one else have this problem, and may have a clue.

Cheers
