Not that happy with two of the runs. Will have to figure out something else.

 

Loop being drained:

Yes, the coolant is now purple. Due to the outstanding quality of EK blocks, which reacted with the coolant and corroded [fuck ek -.-]

[The red is a reflection the blobb of corrosion is the problem]

 

Parts drying:

post-2187-0-25127900-1385814515_thumb.pn

Quality parts such as Aquacomputer don't react or corrode. Same condition as the EK ones. EK just plain blows.

More Pix to come.
