Just like to advise everybody who went out on the 18th to remove and wash out your rad. I was quite conservative with the water splashes, but when I came to fit the replacement rad I found the origional was Blocked pretty solid!

I was very carefull not to get close with the jetwash. Basically held it about 4-5 ft away so that a strong mist flushed the crud out gently

I had already put the power washer to it..... and the hose at home, to assess the damage to the rad, its only now that its been out for a few days that the mud is oozing out of it.
(Repair rad £107 +vat........new replacement £150+vat.....cost price through my lad £109 + vat.......2nd hand £20......time to remove and wash properly 30mins.....you dont even have to drain off the coolant!)

Also look for a detergent called TFN it is a metal safe biological cleaner used for Tarpaulin Lorries.... I have used it several times on my fronty's rad and its superb at loosening the dirt after being baked on!!
Costs about £10 from motor factors!!
