Your PG levels (at 60%) are quite high enough that I don't think it'll be that your juice is too thick.
Are you properly priming your coils before vaping on them?
This is done by dripping juice into all the wicking material until no more can soak in, and then screw it into the full tank, and take a couple of unpowered pulls, then start at low power (temperature) until you've 'broken in' the new coil over the course of your first full tank of juice or so.
What Wattage and temperature are you vaping those coils at?

Well I'd been vaping on it for least at two days with no problem. At least two full tanks. Running from ranges of 180-200 C, any higher and burnt taste.
Just suddenly the temperature I have been vaping on has horrible flavour etc.
Are you sure it's dry hits and not just throat hit? PG = throat hit and flavour VG = Clouds. Try lowering the temp? I think Ni is max 500f and although using high watts ramps up the time it takes to reach 500f it also initially goes over sometimes, I use about 35W-40W not 60w or 75w.
Definitely dry hits.
I tried lowering to around 160 or so, but very little vapor and flavour at that range.
With a fresh tank, I just put my fingers over the air holes and take 2-3 half draws. About 3 seconds. I pulls the juice in the tank into the juice channels of the coil deck.
Yes, start slower to get the juice flowing, but, my way works for me.

Oh sounds like you may have burnt your cotton then. Try new coil with my advice and should be ok. 60PG 18mg is pretty strong on throat hit though. Lower watts to 35w-40w so it dont over heat the coil on initial ramp up.
Since this post as been up, I've put in a new coil, primed it with a different juice and its all fine.
When this one is empty I'll try with the original juice.
Actually, a new coil may not be necessary. You burned the cotton, just replace that.
These are pre-build coils and I'm quite new, so I don't know how to. I haven't thrown them away so.
YouTube triton mini rebuild. Coils are good for ages it's just the cotton that goes bad in a week or so.
Didn't know these existed, thank you. This will save me money
While I'm here, I did drop my mod (metre), just the mod itself and it rattles a bit without the battery. How can I determine if its safe still, probably over worrying but still good to be safe.
It's probably just button rattle - I wouldn't worry about it too much.
Beware of reusing juice that has been vaped in a tank that has had a burned cotton wick in it as quite often the nasty taste will come through when vaping it with the new head.

Yeah most coils can be rebuilt or rewicked, it's vertical so it's a pain to work with. Put your finger on the fire button just to confirm it's not just button rattle (very common).
Its not button rattle, its sounds like its inside.
Edit: Actual it is
, It was the buttons to change the watt etc.
Cool, I started DIY juice after few months and been building my own coils after 4 months. It's pretty easy and mods have short circuit protection so you cant blow up if you do something wrong. CoilToy Coil Calculator website work great, use different drill bits to see which fits snug then just look up what mm size the drill bit is. Most likely 2.5mm.
Still a vaping noob, I was using factory coils, so just had to replace em.
