I haven't been giving this tank much attention since my first couple test runs, I will be giving it a good try over the next few days and staying away from my Nautilus'.
A lot of good tips and advice here, I only rinsed it with hot water prior to using the first one, I haven't even opened the second one yet but I may try washing that one a little different to see if makes any difference.

YMMV but I didn't do anything to that second coil and it performed markedly better than the first for both flavor and airflow.
So here's something weird; I got my ADV in the mail today, in a lowered nic strength and I figured it was time to put a new coil on the GS. Been on the original for two weeks now. At first, I'm getting a bit of gurgling and when I press the button it doesn't seem to fire right away. Also, the draw seems a lot tighter, even though I didn't change the AFC. So I get that adjusted again to the right setting but there's still some gurgling. I didn't have that problem at all until I put in the new coil. Ideas anyone?
The good news is that with the lowered nic level, I can chain vape a bit more without feeling lightheaded or nauseated.
P.S.
On a brighter note, flavor and vapor are still great!
Take the tank off and blow through. A bunch of times. Then blow through somemore.
The gurgling will pass.
I want to make a confession: [you know, Lent and all]
I bought a 5 dollar mini RDA to see if RDA'ing could be a much cheaper option for me. [I really like fresh coils, and I'm spending more money than I have on this vaping journey.]
Yeah, it's fun to run an RDA. It's a great platform for tasting different stuff. But - it's not even in the same Solar System as our GS Air for ADVing.
I will never stray again.

Thanks, That's good to know. I was talking about the second tank I bought though. I hadn't planned on washing my coils even though it seems to be a viable option.
Well that sucks. At least it was cheap, right?.
Its funny you mentioned this, a few days before I got the GS Airs I got a Silo Lite, and I am loving it. The Lite does not have adjustable air flow, but it performs great, it has replaced my mini nautilus and vivi novas as my favorite tank. The only downside is it is huge, which is fine for my 20 and 30 watt sticks, but looks ridiculous on the mini's!
( I also got a kick out of your name. I am an Amy G, and my husbands name is Patrick, and we are also in Indiana. I had to remind myself that my Patrick G does not vape when I first saw your posts, lol)
I'm going to fiddle around with it at some point this weekend and see if I can find a solution. Haven't had much time throughout the week. I'm not giving up just yet, just disappointed that I didn't fall in love with them right out of the box.
Speaking of Vivi Novas, I have couple of these and I can not use them on my iStick. All my juices, except Cappuccino, get a terrible burnt taste. I can vape the Cappuccino at 3.6-3.8 volts with no problems. Any ideas about why this is happening and how to rectify?
I'm finding I'm taking another big step in enjoyment by reducing air flow. I don't know if this is standard, but both of my tanks have one hole with the screw in, and two holes empty. Covering one of the empty holes makes for more flavor for me.
Anyone know where those uber tiny screws can be purchased?

I just tried a Wet Burn, but with warm water in the tank. I alternated between shaking, firing, and vaping without inhale. A bunch of times.
Coil is yielding good flavor again. I think it worked.
Back in olden times I used to vape some unflavored in the evening to clean coils. It is my understanding that it's the flavoring that is being "reduced" to a thick, syrup like consistency that jams up the works. (making the filler not work so well). So, running unflavored (or PG/VG/Vodka) will dilute that syrup as they are very good solvents. It's that syrup that continues to thicken and will eventually caramelize on the coil and then eventually become a poor performer. As many have said, the most effective way to remove that is burning it off.
That's interesting. I just washed my tank with hot water and a drop of dishwashing detergent, rinsed, dried and filled. No bad taste whatsoever. I wonder what that bad taste is on some of them. Remnants of machining oil? Wierd...
