Default Grass clippings
Now don't bust my chops on terminology [or spelling] but between
the radiator for the motor and the what looks like a radiator for the
air conditioner there is about a months worth of grass clipping in
there. HOW do you clean that mess out????

Clean it off with air or water then do this to prevent it from happening again.
