There are good threads on how to wash out your vivi around. I wouldn't toss that juice out yet tho, might be great in a week.

Yeah, I would definitely try and clean the wick before trying a new juice in it. Especially if you thought the juice was nasty.
so by dissembling every piece of the vivi nova and putting everything under warm water ( including the atty ) drying everything I can , even into the smallest places
my atty is garbage then or not?
tried a 2nd juice and still has a hint of burned taste alot less tho

Burned taste? Did you accidentally burn the wick? If so, I don't think it would be salvageable. Do you have the additional heads, or materials to rebuild on your own?
1. Wash in warm (not hot) water, repeatedly.
2. Dry completely
3. Dry Burn
4. Wash quickly
5. Dry completely
6. Ready to rock
This is how I'm cleaning my regular and mini size Vivi Novas. No alcohol or anything.
If you use a really dark juice and you can't wash away some of the color, I've put the wick under a blue lighter flame to burn off any juice still there.
(This is just how I do it with decent results, and definitely not the end all method.)

Sorry I should have been clearer what I was talking about. Burned wicks from the COIL burning them through, no, it will always taste bad.
Lightly burning off really old excess juice can help with a burnt taste, if you are tasting old burnt juice and not the wick itself.
tried a second new juice wich was less bad still bad tho
also something wierd to add to exclude the vivi i filled a carto and i didnt get any vape from it , not even air :S
gonna risk a few ml of my juice i know i like to check if theres nothing wrong with the vivi i guess
to add when i cleaned my vivi for the first time i flattened the wicks with 2 fingers to remove the water from it

This statement confuses me.
Are you saying that you filled a carto, and it isn't firing at all? I've heard of problems arising whilst using the Vivi Novas, and that is the center post of the Vivi is pushing the contact pin down on devices. If you aren't getting the carto to fire, it could be that it's not making connection. Try pulling the pin up on your device with tweezers, or whatever you have around.
Also, if your wick is really burnt on the Nova, it's probably not going to improve in flavor. No matter what juice you use. You might have to use a different head.
ok,
i guess i cleaned my vivi and used it again in about 10 minutes correctly as my juice that i like is still the same
i guess the juices i tried were just awful, very awful.
never again ill use usa mix and HS storm
still any comments on squeezing the wicks to remove water are welcome although it seems to be no problem
edit > yes the carto didn't seem to work at all with the new juice thats awful in the vivi
i do have a carto of the same type and brand and same package that works with some other juice
weird
edit2 > trying new juices is a hassle and as silly as it may sound i feel weird lol
and the taste of those bad juices still lingers in the back of my throat, ill stick a few hours to the juice im used to before i try a new one again ... still got 8 to go or so :S
i really wonder what you all think of this because im really clueless right about now
FYI > the one i like is gold & silver 24mg
one that's not bad but almost tasteless > marlboro 22-28mg
the first new one i tried (the worst) > HS storm 16mg (test kit)
2nd > USA mix 16mg (test kit)
everything i got except for my crappy green smoke is from www.vapeescape.co.uk
excluding the marlboro juice that one is from freedomvape
