spondonturbo Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Hi again. All new to me this watercooled stuff lol. I am trying to put this WP project together that has been stood for a while. Gone to put the water hoses on and the steel tube for the joins is rusty inside and I guess that means the rad will be assuming they are also steel. My question is, can I flush it through with something to clean it out or will that bugger the waterpump or do I need to replace bits? Sorry for dumb questions Quote
Captain Chaos Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 remove rad, fill it with vinegar, drain after a few days. All the rust will come out. 1 Quote
Danm54 Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 The rads are ally. I'll probably have some spare pipes if you need them though. 1 Quote
spondonturbo Posted February 21, 2016 Author Posted February 21, 2016 cheers guys and good to hear the rad is ali, thats one less part to have to sort. Just a few rusty connectors then. Its a non standard hose set up. was thinking of putting some samco hoses, but they seem to be silly money. Might see if I can get some coloured in another make Quote
