I didnt use an aditive, but mine got realy foamy as well. So much foam, in fact, that I had to empty out my T tube(6in long) about 8 times and refill it with water.

i used zerex, and it was foaming. I let it bleed overnight, and the foam was gone. Just make sure you fill it up with water, and let it run.

Kinda odd ppl gettin foam in their lines. I don't get any :confused: Even using methanol. No foam. You think the stuff you guyz are using has a detergent additive in it?

Best read those labels before buying and adding that stuff to your sytem.

I believe water wetter and similar products lower the surface tension of water. That is exatly how soap accomplishes the task of cleaning. It's not a big stretch to equate the two's foaming qualities.
