Advice on EK Loop Please

Watlinguk · 10 Sep 2019 at 07:14

Hi all. I have bought a system with a full EK loop in it which includes two 1080 with full water blocks, Evo Supremacy block and a D5 pump and res.

I've stripped everything out as it was my intentions to sell it all.

I have since decided to keep it and refit it into my system.

The components have been sat idle for a couple of weeks now and I haven't cleaned them at all.

Am i correct in saying a mayhems blitz set would do the trick before i put new coolant in it?

Thanks in advance

Unless it's dirty inside there's no point in Blitz. Just run a few litres of deionised water through everything before replacing coolant.

How long was it used in your system before it’s last clean? What coolant was used?
If it’s been in there a while and it’s already stripped out your system I would use the opportunity to give it a quick clean, don’t use blitz just get a rag with some deionised water and wipe and rinse the blocks out.
I did mine the other month after a few years of use and there was some build up in the fins so well worth the short time it takes
