How to clean inside a Maze 2?
what would be the best way to clean the inside of this water block? I can't open it cause it's soldered on. any ideas?

no one knows?

Vinegar would work fine.
There's an OC article that recommended ketchup, but I don't see why you'd want to waste the tomatoe paste.:shrug: |
Simple Green & hot water 50/50 in a closed loop with the pump only.
Vineger & hot water 50/50 in a closed loop with the pump only. You could use something more harsh if it's only copper, but I'd try one of those two first... in that order. |

Hook up to a butane tank. Dan off "Dans Data(TM)" did something similar with his radiator... it seemed to work OK, though I would check up first (http://www.dansdata.com/burning.htm ) |
Toilet cleaner, the sort that removes limescale. Then on to citric acid: tomatoe sauce, lemon juice, ect. I never had much joy with vinegar, it removed the tarnish (green shit), but my rads inside STILL smells of vinegar after being used for six months!!! (I have a 'spilt water' patch on the carpet as proof! :p )...

ok thanks guys.
one more question.....i'm going to try vinegar so would I just fill a bowl up with vinegar and rest the waterblock in or do put the vinegar in my reservoir and run it through my system? |
Whatever is easier for you. Running it in the loop will also clean out the heatercore.
