Toyota Tundra Forum

Word of caution guys, don't hit the condenser with a power washer. I did, knocking dirt off and flattened a few of the fins. Nothing major - I had to straighten them out with a pointed tool - they're all back to wide open with the exception of 2-3 that are lying flat. I shouldn't worry about 2-3 of these in this condition, correct? Freaking bone-head mistake on my part - wanted to warn the rest of the crowd so the same mistake isn't made by you guys. They are ULTRA sensistive fins...

Good heads up seniorchief... thanks! And I would think you're fine with only a few fins bent over. Just curious, but can you not get to the few left bent?

They are down there pretty flat. Can't even get a sharp pointed tool between the layers. I am going to have a buddy of mine at an auto shop here take a peek at it.

Good luck... keep us posted on the outcome!

Thanks for the heads up.

They make a comb for condenser/evaporator fins you can probably pick one up at an AC parts house, may or may not work just FYI

I have a comb - doesn't work well on this, as the pattern is not standard.
I did a quick fix with pointed tool - I believe all is well now.

I better check mine. I love my pressure washer.
I too did a bonehead thing last week. I was washing the vinyl siding on my house, the tip need a little adjustment. I just turned it a bit and blew a hole in the siding........... crap
