Hello,

I've installed a custom WC setup, and this is my first time, newbie here! So, the problem is that there is a large bubble in one of my tubes, and the water coolant seems to not be moving as well. I have as stated in the title a Swiftech MCP655 pump installed, and I can see it moving the coolant in the reservoir, but as stated nothing in my tubes? I was wondering if there is there anything I can do? I have a combined pump/reservoir, the reservoir is a Moonsoon Series Two Premium D5, and the pump as stated before is the Swiftech MCP655.

Thank You

What exactly do you mean nothing in the tubes? You're supposed to prime the system and remove air bubbles. If the pump runs without adequate liquid to pump, you will ruin the pump. Purge the system of air bubbles. Is there any way you can tilt the system to float the bubbles into the reservoir?

What I mean by nothing in the tubes is that there is no flow of coolant throughout my WC loop. The only water that is moving is inside my reservoir. I have clear 1/2 x 3/8 tubing. The pump is mounted to the reservoir, so I don't see it not getting enough fluid, or being installed in the wrong direction. I'll try tilting the system, but this seems like a fairly large bubble.

To let out the air in your system you have to give it a way to leave it -> open a port at the highest point of the loop (probably the fillport of your bay res) and crank up the pump to maximum speed.
If you have lots of air in the loop, you'll have to fill in some more water/coolant after you removed the air, always watch your reservoir so your pump won't run dry!
