Boiling distilled water. Read my article on why you don't use vinegar.
If it is a Black Ice, you can use radiator flush (the solder flux isn't always water-soluble.)

Damn, thanks for the quick reply!
It is in fact a Black Ice radiator. Automotive radiator flush, eh? I have a fountain pump and I have my shiny new water-cooling pump, would it matter which I used?

Just pour it in and shake it.
