Mowing requires cleaning of the big pleated outer air filters of the tractors several times a year. Have usually used a Radiator Genie wand which does a good job. Preventing maintenance on finish mower on the B26 my trusted, well used, radiator genie wand broke. Testing after maintenance had some black smoke from the exhaust. Blew out using recently acquired detailing blow gun.


Really good cleaning between the pleats. Maybe better. Could tell more the tractor had more power and no black smoke under load.

Used JB weld to repair the radiator genie wand for the second time. Over twenty years of use. Ordered a new set just in case. Hard to beat for blowing out radiators.

Probably use the detail blow gun to clean air filters again.
