Clogged Ports on Cimex - Taz - 11-11-2014
what is the best way to unclog the ports on a Cimex. Normally I can use an air compressor and blow them out clean...but some reason I have two of the three that will not. Thanks.

Remove the plugs and use a rat tail file (small round file) to clean the inlet of any build-up.
I also put the garden hose (minus fittings), onto the outlet pipe where the pad holder fits on, and back-flush out through the holes where the plastic lugs sit.
Do this regularly.

Who would have guessed that I have a file named after me?

Without telling porkies, no guessing required mate.
