hi everyone.
i thought i would share a tip on cleaning out your heater matrix if its a bit blocked.
i took mine out as it was pretty much doing nothing and after flushing it through back and forth i managed to get flow through it but only a quarter of it heated up when flushed with hot water.
so i left mine filled with coca cola for 3 days just sat outside (on the advice of my dear mother of all people).
i flushed it out today and the **** that came out you just wouldn't believe!!
must have been about a cups worth of dirt and grime and rust came out of it.
i kept flushing it backwards and forward until it ran clear and now three quarters of the matrix gets hot.
im going to try the coke again for a few more days to see if any more comes out but its definitely worth a try before buying a new one.
