Any thoughts on cleaning the insides of heat exchangers.
I acquired a used set, cleaned up the outsides, and hooked them up. Last night I put the muffler on and let the car run for a few minutes (a recent development that I am quite thrilled about). A few minutes later it started smoking like a chimney. A quick peek underneath found that the smoke was pouring out of the heat exchangers. At least it got all of the mosquitoes out of the garage. Thanks |
