I straightened the fins (they weren't too bad) and blew out some junk/dust, but I know it'd need to come out to do it right.

Yea, it sounds like those are two good steps in the right direction. I'll probably start with that and see how it does.
It's too bad they couldn't have done some type of blow off valve that only bled off enough to keep the pressure at a safe level but leaving most of the flow intact.
Thanks for the input.
