Yeah I have only WCed a few times... I build the rig up with enough slack in the hoses that I can move pieces around while the pump is on to bleed the air. (flip the rad 180 degrees for a few minutes. Tilt the whole rig to the side then the other side...

Never took more than 10 minutes to bleed a system after my first attempt./

But I also never ran 4 blocks in a loop

I just have the cpu in there. But the air in the return line is like a brick wall. I have no idea how I got the last pump going.

With my gpus I have the res above everything and it just bleeds right out.

Here as you can see the end of the return is downhill. If I put the return through the side of the cooler it would work great I bet, but that's a lot of work I don't plan to do.

I should just let a few gallons out and put a hole through the side, then the air would have nowhere to get trapped. Simple solution, pain in the ass to do. I think I'll try the submersible first though as it should be much quieter.

I'm going to have the same problem with the submersible in the return line. This blows.
