Already posted this in Newbie section, but as it is a rather special problem and posts in that section move on very fast, I think it's ok posting it here again.

I got myself one of those fancy TTT Goosenecks, which I put on my Provari with a tanksystem on top. It's a very relaxing way to vape, if not juice was permanently dripping into my mouth now.

The assumed reason for this is, that the connection of the gooseneck is so deep, that the thread of the carto disappears in it completely, including the air holes. So, as almost no air can get into the carto anymore, juice gets sucked in at a high rate now instead. I tried to unscrew it a little bit, but then the tank is rattling plus the electric connection is gone. There are some air slots at top of that gooseneck, but there is no chance to make the carto's air holes match those.

What would be needed was a carto with a longer threading, but I fear such doesn't exist. Any cheap trick to fix this issue?

    Technically a gooseneck is a 510 - 510 adapter/extension, but it does sound like you are cutting off the air flow. Look at the top of the gooseneck female connection, there should be cross slots that allow air in. If those cross slots are missing, or to small, they will reduce or eliminate air flow.
    When I first got my provari I went ballistic when one of my favorite tanks would not work on it. The problem was that the bottom of the tank sat on the edge of the drip well of the provari sealing off the air flow. Yes I could have used an extension to solve the problem, or shortened the tank a little so that it could sit higher on the carto, but I didn't want to (looks like crap). After I settled down and engaged brain, the solution was to simple.

    So slow down, take a deep breath, and look for why you are not getting air flow. It is probably just as simple.
