"In-Frame" intercooler cleanout ideas..??

[BushWakr - RIP]

what is the best way to do a cleanout service on the intercooler, preferrably while its still in the truck??

I thought of using some kind of 'adapter' and hooking a compressor up, running up the PSI in the compressor resivoir and let'n it rip. Would that work??? OR, should it be a more traditional 'flush-out' like a radiatior method?



Any thoughts on this one guys???



thanks in advance,, BushWakr

I'm not sure how you would do this in the truck as I'm not sure how to get air in and out at a decent pressure. Could take the outlet off and drive it but that wouldn't be the best idea due to EGT's and and open intake. I'm not sure why this would be necessary as the only thing that passes through is air.
