Default Cleaned my heatercore



There was a TON of dust...I took a towel, the one you use to dry off with, and wet it down good, put my heatercore on it, then used my air compressor to blow through it...Turns out, I needed my vacum on the other end, it gets quite dusty over there, too. I ended with with about a quarter inch of dust on the wet towel, and I dropped from 37C idle to 34 idle....I'm not gonna argue with that one. I'll take a drop like that any day!

See, I can't measure my water temp, but my ambient is 70F, or 21C. Truth is, I can't remember the last time I cleaned it!

It's hard to vacum out unless you blew all the junk to one side with a can 'o air or a compressor. Then it's easy
