    Hey all so I just bought myself a nice used pressure washer. Tomorrow I'm gonna go get some pump oil for it and then finish cleaning it up before I put it all back together and then test it. If it runs like it's supposed to, then I'll spray the hell out of the cooler to see what I can get out of it. Also per Nutz's comment, I'll go get myself some of that purple power stuff to attack it as well.

    make sure to soak the whole EGR cooler over night in 50/50 purple power and water. Then use the red nozzle to spray in there. I sprayed the front and back of the EGR cooler for a while and carbon flows out.
