1. A radiator cleaning assembly for blowing compressed air through a radiator for cleaning debris from the radiator, said assembly comprising:
a blowing tube having a tubular portion and a fin portion being flattened thereby facilitating said fin portion to be positioned adjacent to a radiator without damaging the radiator, said fin portion having an air hole extending into an interior of said blowing tube, said air hole being distally positioned with respect to said tubular portion;
a valve being integrated into said blowing tube, said valve being positioned on said tubular portion, said valve being positionable in an open condition wherein said valve is configured to pass air into said blowing tube, said valve being positionable in a closed condition wherein said valve is configured to inhibit air from passing into said blowing tube;
an air hose being fluidly coupled to said valve, said air hose being fluidly coupled to a source of compressed air to deliver compressed air to said valve, said valve delivering the compressed air to said air hole in said blowing tube when said valve is in said open condition thereby facilitating the compressed air to dislodge dirt and debris from the radiator when said blowing tube is positioned next to the radiator;
wherein said blowing tube has a first end, a second end and an outer wall extending between said first end and said second end, said first end being associated with said tubular portion, said first end being open, said second end being associated with said fin portion, said second end being closed, said outer wall associated with said tubular portion being continuously arcuate about an axis extending between said first end and said second end such that said tubular portion defines a cylindrical shape, said outer wall associated with said fin portion being flattened to define a first lateral side of said outer wall associated with said fin portion and a second side of said outer wall associated with said fin portion, said first lateral side lying on a plane being oriented parallel with said second lateral side having said first lateral side being spaced from said second lateral side; and
a sleeve being wrapped around said blowing tube, said sleeve being positioned to extend across said threshold of said outer wall between said tubular portion and said fin portion, said sleeve conforming to a shape of said outer wall extending over portions of both the tubular portion and the fin portion.
