Yeah, I wish they were somewhere else as well, the parking is a bit lacking. When I wick it is pretty snug, you can feel it kinda "squeak" a bit.
I just have kayfuns so those are different parts, couldn't tell you on that oring. As for cotton amounts, play around for sure because it's the one thing that's hard to describe without physically showing someone and although you can't use to little, too much is also not good. If you over stuff the coil the flavor will suffer, too little usually produces dry hits and in your case flooding. There should be a middle ground and takes a bit of time to find itThat screws into the top cap of the tank. It's where the chimney goes through the top cap. I wasn't even aware it was a seperate piece, until I noticed it was loose when I was cleaning it up.
I have a new wick in there now -- as much cotton as I could get through the coil. It's almost OK. So, I mixed up some 72% VG juice to try. Have to give that a week or more to age a bit. That much cotton will be a pain to do every time, so I'm going to try a bit less actual wick, and then packing more cotton in around below.
Glad you liked the shop. I just wish they were someplace else. I imagine the retail rental is better there than around Santa Fe & Belleview though, or downtown Littleton.

Seriously, this may be the most useful post I've ever encountered on ECF, lol.
I'm in the Denver area, I've never been able to locally source replacement screws/hardware, I *hate* the Kayfun deck screws, so, therefore, I will be headed over to A&A ASAP.
Hopefully they have replacement fill hole screws as well.
Thank you thank you!
Hey Whistle_Pig!
I think you dropped your bag of replacement O rings by the juice bar when you here the other day. We've got them saved for you! Just remind us when you come in next time.
... and it worked well @ 20W. But with a mech, I'll be at 18.5W.
