Well, shoot...
Let me try to elaborate...
I tightened the bottom section of the R91 too tight. Defeated the o-ring by squishing it too much. Result: "weeping" which is really a slow leak. Replaced the o-ring with a spare after carefully cleaning all channels where o-rings go in the whole...
Really a fine explanation of a very important subject. While a year isn't very long to be a vaper, it's been a year of learning. There are hundreds of "why am I getting dry hit" or "why is my device flooding" questions all over the place. Only here have I encountered a well-written, serious...
One more thing...
State O' Flux also told me to use a little silicone grease (Available at Home Depot, Lowes, Walmart, etc) on the joints of my R91. This idea has helped immensely with weeping around the joints. Not a huge issue, but annoying just the same.
I'm pretty convinced there is a...
I ordered and received the ones from Amazon and they're identical in appearance. Don't know if that helps you, but they work fine in mine.

Hope the link works. I have a couple of threads about...
One more thing...
It is critical that none of the joints with o-rings gets too tight. Too tight and the o-ring doesn't function properly resulting in a leak or seepage around the joint. I had one so tight I couldn't get it apart. I was about to use a vise and channel lock pliers on it when I...

I aim to please! HAHAHAHA! Thanks again for the great info. The idea of dis-assembly, clean and re-assemble is spot on.

State O Flux...
Wow! Great read in the thread link you posted. I'm very grateful for the information AND the way it was presented. Good job!
Okay. Progress here. All of my problems are user error and NOT the fault of the device.
1. I over filled the tank leaving no room for air to do the...
Thank you, thank you, thank you! The filling procedure is one piece that I was missing - I'm having the same problem with my genuine (Kebo) Russian 91%.
Right now, all is well with the Russian. My biggest problem is "weeping" out the air intake hole. As the juice is depleted in the tank, the...
Hey Merddyn...
All the info you presented was very helpful. I ordered the O rings from Amazon and I think they're a little small. They fall out of the top of my Russian. On my Russian there is, indeed, a recess in the top cap that holds the O ring in place. My Russian 91% came from...
Talk about perfect timing...
I'm having a similar problem. My Russian 91% "weeps" eliquid from the air intake. Also, there's a lot of vapor shooting out that hole. I've taken the device apart and have never found the O-ring above the chimney out of place. It looks fine. In fact, it's tight...
