foam removal-redline water wetter?

ciscokid454 · 05-22-2003, 05:39 AM

Ok, i'm finishing up my watercooling stuff.
System is run testing for leaks.
I've noticed some foam in the res (danger den clear)
and a small amount in the tubing itself..
I remember last time I watercooled, someone told me how to get rid of it..
can someone please help me here..
I'm pretty sure I got all the air out of the lines, except for a small air pocket in the top of the res.
I couldn't fill it anymore, to put the cap on.
Sytem is danger den clear res, eheim 1060, BIX rad, custom made waterblock for old kryotech slot A cooler, Danger Den Z-Chip Block, swiftech mcw-5000A, and mcw-50.
So that all being that...
Any idea's?
I do not have the blue foam stuff from the pump in the res..
I remember people suggesting using that as a way to remove the bubbles/foam??
Anything would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Do you have a pic of your system?

How much WW did you add to system?

Most people use 1 or 2 capfulls

I would start with just one capfull.

Sometimes foam will remove itself after a couple of days.

How do you fill your system?

I don't actually.
I had about a half gallan of water with about 2 capfulls, from the last time I was watercooling, say oct oct last year.
Haven't touched the stuff though..

ok..I think I figured it out..I don't have all the air out of the line..the stupid danger den rev.1 res sucks major ass..
anyway.
with the watercooling, and kryotech running...
my water temps were crossing 55F, and I just started getting a little condensation on the blocks..
What measures do I need to take to insure that I do not have to worry about it?
conductive grease, conformal coating or what?
