I've been using a cooling solution from Primochill and a cleaning solution as well. The cooling fluid is clear colored.

It has been 6 months since I changed the fluid, I replaced the fluid with the cleaning fluid and let my pc run with it for 2 days. It cleaned my cpu block but the tubes are still tinted yellow, they're supposed to be clear.

Can someone recommend a better/different solution? Or should I be concerned? The people at Primochill said after I mix the bottle in a gallon of distilled water it should last a year, it's about a year old. Maybe that's the problem.

Can you include images of the tubes and their tinting? If they're soft tubing, perhaps consider replacing them with fresh tubes. If they're hard line tubing, a full tear down is a good idea. In fact, you're advised to tear down the entire loop to inspect all of your components.
