One year on and my tubing and/or fluid is going green.

You can actually see the imprint of the jet plate on the block in the second picture.

Yeah I actually noticed that after i made my previous post.

How's the cleaning going, all done now?

Yeah, just waiting on a couple of fittings and then i'll be filling the loop.

Well, everything's up and running and temps look good (idle, no load tests yet). I suppose the real test is whether or not the fluid turns green again.

I just wanted to say a big thank you to you guys, your help and advice was invaluable and greatly appreciated it.

Very happy to hear it mate. What fluid and concentration did you go for?

It's tough to spend the money custom loops require, go through the battles it can present, and have to go back to square one. Well done for persevering.

You may find you get a little green down the line, as the loop turns over day in day out, likely from all that extra vinegar you added. If it does just drain, quick blitz, flush and go again. Shouldn't need a dismantle.

I went with XT-1 nuke initially but had to drain it to rejig the loop a little. I didn't have any more distilled water and i really wanted to get the loop going again so i used the regular X1 premix i already had.

I'm hoping there wont be a trace of vinegar left in the system after giving the loop two goes of blitz part 2 and about 6 litres of deionised flushed through the loop over a week or so.

Sorry, double post.
