QUOTE(nohal @ Jun 26 2013, 09:57 PM) IDK why, seems too clunky.  . Was that a copper pipe? Hey dude, I'm going to give a try with paint stripper. Going to test on something else first.  Don't let the part soak too long. haha.

Just tighten as much as the fittings allow it. Too much and the o-rings will be flattened, too little and the fitting will leak.

Dry pump is dead pump. You can easily flush your loop without drain port by carefully disconnecting the lowest point tube. Put a bucket below.

Does anyone here carry or have PT Nuke fluid for sale? Or knows anyone or any store locally that carries them?
My build is done and the coolant uses dye+distilled water, and I'd dont want to use silver killcoil to avoid spoiling its looks.
