I've just bled my system, and everything is going as expected. However, the pump seems to be "generating" air. The outlet on the pump has lots of bubbles coming out of it, and they are not in the circuit before the pump. I've turned the entire thing on its side to make sure I had all the trapped air out, and this made no difference.
If the outlet barb on the pump is letting air in, wouldn't there be water coming out? Does the pump create air of any sort? My inlet hose is totally submerged in my res, and I can't seem to find any other place where air would enter the system. There are also no leaks. One more thing...there is a sort of hissing/fizzing sound emanating from the outlet barb on the pump.
This extra air in the circuit is not desired, so I'm trying to find a way to eliminate it before I close the circuit.
Parts:
Swiftech MCW-5002P cpu block
Dangerden Maze4 gpu block
Black Ice Xtreme rad
Hydor L30 pump
Swiftech 1/2" fill and bleed kit (sits in 5.25 bay)
El Cheapo Home Depot 1/2" ID tubing
Need some help!
