rocky Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Hi, I took off the radiator cowling on my puma 90 and found the radiator full of dead flies and rubbish etc. What is the best way to get them out as there is hardly any room between it and the intercooler. I thought about washing them out with the garden hose or using compressed air--I don't want to do any damage. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Regards, rocky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litch Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I always use a garden hose (NOT a pressure washer), regular use will keep it free of debris & muck but whatever you do don't be tempted to poke it. It's like under-body & chassis cleaning, little & often is better than blasting it once or twice a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frax Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I agree a garden hose is all that is required - once used a pressure washer the the internal fins all washed out. Not a nice sight a naked radiator. Frax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
