The condensor was packed with all sorts of little leaves and a few bugs as well. And for some reason there was some fuzz stuck to the little louvers as well. I used some tiny pliers and some pics to try and get everything out but it didn't work so well. So then I resorted to using a propane torch to burn the stuff out of there. That worked great. If the leaves and stuff didn't completely burn at least they shrunk a little and I was able to shoot them out of there with compressed air. Just getting this stuff out probably got back another 20% in AC performance.
