'98 XK8 washer jets

Tried a search but couldn't find the exact answer. Are the windshield jets suppose to stream or spray in a fan pattern? I'm getting a stream and the windshield doesn't seem to be getting a good coverage of fluid. The little rubber thingies look a little dry and after a wash I get drips of fluid for a while. I fixed every other thing that's gone wrong to the tune of many $$$$ might as well get this done also. Replacements are little pricey and can't find any on ebay or used parts web sites. Any ideas?

Before you buy new parts, if you have access to an air compressor with a blowgun attachment try to blow the nozzle out from wiper into the washer resevoir. I learned this from a friend of mine and it works. I wouldn't use the needle method as the first course of action because if you deform the nozzle you'll ruin the spray pattern even if you manage to remove the clog.
