Re: [VAL] Air Conditioner question



The combs for air conditoner condensers come in a number of different 
sizes, it may be that you don't have the right comb for it.

A butter knife and hours of time and patience will sometimes work.

Make sure that all the crud, sticks, dead bugs and etc are out of the 
unit too.
