So I have this is a 1.5 dual coil and I was wwondering how I go about rebuilding it, is a dual coil possible or do I have to make it single coiled?

I always rebuilt them single coil with a rayon "flavor wick" on top to take up the extra space. Works great!
I've heard some can rebuild duallies, but I've never tried.... I can wind the singles in my sleep now....
From what I have read dual coils for Evods are usually rebuilt as singles because it's easy and it works well. I think the general
consensus is you end up with a Better coil DIY than the factory sold you to begin with.
Anyone who is thinking about rebuilding an Evod coil should at least pull the stem, and flavor wicks and dry burn one or 11 after a soak/clean. You'll see how that factory did them and it should be pretty clear you can easily improve on that. I haven't opened
up that many and I've seen some poorly done stock ones.

I've rebuilt them as single coil and been perfectly happy with them. Double coils are really hard to build (for me at least) and therefore not worth the bother.
yes the pro tank coils are much longer. But I think the coil chamber is taller on the dual coil heads for the evods.
Just wondering if I can use single coil heads in the evod2. Like the glass tank concept....
I think you'll find there's a gap between the bottom of the chimney and the top shoulder on the coil. You might get away with it if you use an extra thick silicon washer between the two.
HMM maybe put another rubber cup upside down on the stem?
Might have to try this.
Don't like the idea of a single coil in a dual coil housing with an extra wick to prevent flooding.

I bought 10 of the cheapest Evod clones I could find 1.99 ea. None of them have any gurgling even when drained dry. Not sure where this Evod gurgling thing came from.
Yotube has lots of vids on the subject... You CAN do them as duals agian, many do.. Me I found it's not worth the hassle. 29,30,31 gauge wire used to make single VERTICAL coils wicked with cotton or rayon, are easy and work better. If you do duals you looking at using 33, 34 or 35 gauge. 29 and 30 awg @ 1.8-2 ohms is how I do all my Kanger dauls. (31 if I want it HOT) Mini PT3 on a EGO1100 batt is my backup.
Personally I would save the headache. Spend $10 at Fastech get a REAL rebuildable. Make that $15 and add some coils. If nothing else use the coils as parts for rebuilding. LightningVapes also sell Kanger coil parts.
You will NEVER cure flooding and gurgling with this type of TANK.. Until you first eliminate gravity and changes to barometric pressure.
Using multiple evod clones for a couple of weeks now and no gurgling at all. I did rebuild the clils that came in them with 32 ga Kanthal and japanese cotton wicks. The origional coils sucked, tasted bad.
Not the first sign of gurgling or leaking at all so far. Carry them in a case in my pocket lie on side, have run them dry on juice, etc I am just blessed I suppose or maybe the 1.99 clone is better than the origional?

I used to use Evods and they were fine when new, and began to gurgle after a fair amount of use - so they probably wear somewhere. Then I discovered the upside down silicon cup trick and that fixed them.
