CPU WC Rad

Well its only the block and the rad

and their fine!

Update 1: Its cleaner - was on for 2 hours so, water was dripping down the side though. Ill tighten everything up and just do another run later like this to see what happens. was only on one side of the pump (next to power cable)

Update 2: Changed the tube to rinse it out with, also made sure it was really tight. Put a bit to much water in again i think meaning its just rather noisy and sort of 'wavy' at the top of the pump. So far no water has dripped down from the sides. Though at the top i will have to tighten the black cap tightly i think as there is a little bit of water floading over it! Probably because theres to much water in the pump itself?
Pump cleaning video recorded it while it had the vin in as well

Excellent! Looking good. Let us know how it goes! Plus, if you have any questions with putting it together just ask!

Received today and grr

Im obviously not thinking straight or i've ordered wrong parts.

The tubing won't even stay onto the left part of the barbs i've bought

(left) I don't see how any tubing would..?

Though the tubing with some force fits great onto the fittings on the pump and cpu block.

The angled rotatable fittings fit into the rad but the G1/4 thread part is rather short they can't tighten up (is that how its meant to be?)

Well the way i thought they go on is like - so the tubing just goes onto the end of the 90degree thing though ofc it can't

Again this post could really make me look like a fool!

The fitting does have a metal ring on it
Sorry im not very good at photo's and my phone isn't any good at photos really and only other camera i've got is this sony bloggy!

90 agree on left of course, barb from the rad on the right

and how my brain is going around putting the tube on

One of the 1/2" 90° Angled Rotatable Fittings didn't come in any sort of bag, just looked and the other did. "63179 Schlanchanschluss G1/4-MSV - Drehbar - 0- Ring

Don't want to mess around with it just yet.
