EK FLT Integrated pump bleed

[seekdestroy]

Hey guys,

I've got a EK FLT 120 with an integrated pump, but have problems with a small amount of air getting sucked straight back into the pump intake. With other reservoirs combo's I've cut a bit of a tubing up & stuck it in to stop this but the angles on the FLT make this virtually impossible.

Curious if anyone has found a way to bleed this effectively?

Have you tried the old "pinch a bit of tubing to slow the flow right down" trick? Assuming you have pinchable tubing.

Are you using the middle port for the loop return? It looks like there's a little internal baffle to help prevent bubbles shooting straight through.

I do agree it's difficult with these integrated units though.
