was told not to use em as it bends shit out of the fins??

would have been easier than the compressor as it got that hot you could smell it inside the house up the back. :shock:

Just an observation but your radiator looks significantly longer than mine.

Mine (if I recall correctly) is wider rather then tall yet your looks much taller than wide ...

Must be something to do with the later model TD42Ti ...

Care is advised but I didn't bend one (that I noticed) and I also have one of the higher pressure consumer Karchers.

TD6 has the 4.8 longer narrower radiator... I looked at one in another GU the other week it was easily 4inch wider...

Edit; now to figure out how to do the Air Cond condensor without removing it...
