Cleaning DP rear radiator.
Please don't start any should bought one with a side radiator posts as it wouldn't serve any purpose on this thread.
So, I attempted to do mine today. That main cooling radiator behind the fan is virtually impossible to get at on our coach without removing the fan and shroud. Which if done, it wouldn't be by me. No way to effectively get simple green in there, much less water to rinse it out. I had a sprayer for the simple green with a long wand, but it wouldn't have done any good.
I did do the rear (CAC) I guess they call it, from the rear. Nothing came through to the main at all. Man did the bubbles ever come out after starting, I shut off and rinsed 4 times before that stopped. I couldn't help thinking what it would look like behind me driving in the rain if not all rinsed out. Bubbles were 2 feet deep.
So who has had theirs professionally done? I'm assuming they remove both and do a good cleaning? How often do you do this, and what was the cost?
I could see the main looked fairly dirty even with 5000 miles on it.
