I keep a 10 L garden pump sprayer in the back of my truck for situations like that, at the end of the day after airing up I start the truck up ..pump up the ol sprayer and use it to wash as much mud out of the fins as i can... makes a huge difference and generally is all thats needed to get you home or to the nearest power wash to do the job properly :mrgreen: also doubles as spare raditator water, windscreen, number plate/lights washer, hand washer and in a couple of cases sprayed over the rad fins of a boiling Zuk to bring down the temp. wouldn't go bush without it

I just got a cheap one from the whorehouse with the long arm on it to get right in behind the grill, think i paid about $20 for it .. :D

doesn't have the pressure to remove the large clumps of solid mud but will wash off the thin coat of watery mud/slop like whats covering the front of your whale :lol: :lol: , even a thin coat of that sh*t can cause the rad to loose a lot of it's cooling ability.

Did woodhill on Saturday - Pretty quiet; didn't see anyone other than the patrol team the whole time we were there!

I swear this hill climb is a lot harder than it used to be!

Got shown an old water/foam fire extinguisher a week ago. Put water in it (no foam) pressurise it, fit a better directional nossle and you have a portable pressure sprayer for cleaning radiators etc. Can be refilled from anywhere and pressurised with on board air too.
