thanks for the quick respond. Ive replaced the atomizer head and still get the old flavour. The problem is that i tried refilling the tank with a new flavour which I thought it was ready, but it tasted like alcohol (I forgot to breathe the e liquid). I let it all night open (aprox 12 hours of breathing) the liquid smells much better now. Still cant remove the smell from the tank. The atomizer, airflow control and drip tip are clean, but the tank still has a smell of a e juice which was not correctly breath. Sorry if its confusing, engilsh is not my first language. I have around 1 month vaping. 8 years of analog and i do not want to go back.
thanks ebates, i'll try and ill let you know. by the way im upgrading to the nautilus an rda and a vaporshark rdna. So im just a beginner.. ive been reading alot about safety. The cleaning has me stressed though.
Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) also works for removing odors. Add some to hot water (about a handful to a liter) and let your tank soak overnight. Then rinse well.

Have an evod that had a very strong tobacco flavor. Rinsed in very warm water between flavors but it still had that strong tobacco taste. Dumped that liquid, rinsed in warm water and then soaked in pure grain alcohol for 20 min. Rinsed it again under very warm water. Let it dry, popped in a new atomizer head and there's not even a hint of that nasty old flavor. Cheap vodka should produce the same results.
Cheap vodka will do it! make sure you give ti time for the saturated juice that is on the wick still to get vaped off.
I've been soaking PT heads in Iso for months and have yet to see anything that I'd relate to o-ring damage. Really the only time I use anything other than water is when cleaning brand new tanks (machine oil removal).
I've never tried it but the baking soda idea is probably a really good suggestion. My wife and mom keep a box of baking soda in the fridg for odor control.
Good Luck
do you guys think ultrasonic cleaners work? they look very interesting and trouble free? any cons using ultrasonic cleaners? Thank you guys for all the quick responses.
I use the baking soda method myself. Few spoonfuls in a bowl of hot water and soak overnight and then rinse. If it's really stubborn i just dump the stuff directly in the tank and add a few drops of water so it's full of paste for a few hours. Rinses out fine and seems to work every time.
Any of these methods not ok with a PMMA tank? I have a Bayou that I bought used I'd like to get all kinds of clean
