I have one from Highlifter and it works good. Its just a 12V bilge pump with a hose and a nozzle. You can throw it in any water you find, I prefer creeks, but a mudhole works in a tight. It has filters on it to prevent it from picking up large debris. I have caught my mud plugged radiator a few times thanks to my temp gauge, and I have used the washer to clean it up. Its easier to clean on the trail as the mud is usually still wet and comes off OK.

I give it a thumbs up.

It was $45 from Highlifter and its called a "radiator power washer". Its worth the $45 in not having to find and piece all the parts together. The kit has to be assembled, but its easy. You get a 12V outlet plug in that is spliced into the bilge pump wires, the bilge pump, filters I think, a section of hose and a nozzle. It will shoot water quite far in the air.
