Hey
did you flush the loop before bleeding? if so what did you use?
I noticed that they want us to use IDC to flush it, but i don't want to waste a drop of this amazing stuff flushing the system out.

I hooked everything up to my kitchen faucet and ran hot tap water though. Then rinse it w/ some distilled.

I have never seen such a clean-looking setup. You have the patience of Job, as they say. Incredible.

You have to be careful hooking your parts up to a faucet. They are not meant to take the pressure that your house water lines provide, and it can burst parts. I normally pour almost boiling water through then a quick rinse with distilled.
