It may just be a bad clearo. These things happen from time to time, It just sucks when it does happen.
But again without knowing exactly what you have its hard to troubleshoot totally blind.
First try. Not sure about it.

Ok So this kit Has a regular stardust type clearomizer. If you purchased the cartomizers empty then you will be either loading up a few just to try out your liquids(waste in my opinion) OR rinsing out the clearo that does work a few times until you find a liquid you do like. I would suggest the latter option. There is very little overhang of flavors once they are cleaned and dry burned. I will explain more of this method if you like.
It seems that I only have one clearo to work with now so I guess I will need to rinse it. Can you explain how to do it with out ruining anything I don't want to lose the other clearo lol
Here's a good YouTube tutorial on how to clean clearos:

As for your defective clearo, have you tried to use it on another battery?

When it's fully charged then try swapping the battery, if it vapes then the center pin may be pushed down due to screwing the clearo too tightly. If it still doesn't vape, then it's most likely a faulty clearo.
Ok I will try that. This is very frustrating. I feel like I have no idea what I'm doing.
Ok so remove the screw-in tip. Dump the liquid down the drain. Run the water to a warmer temperatue. Rinse the innards thoroughly. I normall fill/dump about six to ten times(until the wicks appear clean and white again). Blow out the excess water. (This part is optional but I do advise you to do it) with tweezers or anything else handy pull up the little silicone boot around the top, remove set aside. Grasp firmly the metal spike and wiggle it to-and-fro to remove it from the coil seat. Some of these are pressed in and some come out with the silicone boot. this will give you a view of the heating coil and the wicks. Apply disassembled clearo to battery as-is. Apply power to the coil, in medium pulses(about 3 seconds on 3 seconds off), until you begin to get the coil to glow completely. Once the coil glows the wick will be dry and cleaned of most if not all the previous flavor.
At this point you have a fresh coil to try other flavors. I would leave it apart and drip a few drops directly on the coil and wick inside the cup, then attach mouthpiece to test that specific flavor. You have in essence created a dripping atomizer at this point. This would allow you to quickly try a few flavors without having to go through the whole disassembly process just to clean the wick/coil. Once you have found a flavor you can stick with for a while then replace the spike and silicone boot to fill the clearo with that flavor.
Then you can get on your favorite vendors site and order a one or two basic 510 atomizers and a simple driptip specifically for testing new liquids.

It does take a little time to get accustomed to switching. All this trouble will come in handy later as a refrence for something that could or probably will show up later in your vaping journey.
I've been vaping for a god while now(2+ yrs) and still dont feel real confident of what i'm doing sometimes. It took me a long time to find a juice I really like. Dont give up is the main thing. It will get easier.
Well I cleaned it but I can still taste the first. Maybe because of the sinus infection everything will taste bad.
One thing I've noticed as well is that some dull flavors are getting better with time. I believe this has to do with my taste returning and or with the juice steeping. Some juices have to sit for a bit.
You may have to just power through it if you really want to use that clearo. And Yes if you have a sinus infection, and are just leaving regular smokes, then you might just not find that perfect fit right away.
You do have the cartos, and could devote one to each of five flavors. This would help get you going, and would be a clean shot for each of those five flavors.
Ok so you would want a simple 510 atomizer, something like this Spare Atomizer for Joye 510 or eGo and standard 510 drip tip like this Drip Tips Clear Colored , That would be all thats required. These can be rinsed and cleaned and reused over and over with very little overlap of flavors.
