The big mouth on my EG likes eating bugs. But they all get stuck on the radiator and grill. Wondering if anyone had any special procedure they used for getting rid of the suicidal critters. I'm guessing the high pressure hose isn't a great idea.

use the high pressure hose...just apply it up and down NOT across the fins. If u take care , it shoudl be fine.
Also , apply some mesh or similar infront of the radiator to stop bugs getting stuck in there...

My radiator is bent, rusted (looks like that at least, doesn't leak or anything) and full of rocks, bugs, small children and the like, but my car never goes over half on the "heat-o-guage", even on nice hot days like today when I was driving around at 1:30 in the arvo 41.9 Degrees. I'm sure a few bugs won't hurt, they increase surface area :P
