Maybe someone could help me...

I have an EHPRO KFL+ that has been performing well for a couple of weeks. After my last build, a problem developed. When I try to fill up the KFL+ from the bottom fill hole, juice drips out of the drip tip and juice also comes back out around the fill hole. My (cotton) wicks are just touching the deck. I even tried filling it with the wick removed, same result. It appears that pressure is building up when I fill, which wasn't happening before. I have replaced all the O-rings, still no luck. Someone please help, this is my only rebuildable (which I am hooked on) and it's sitting on the bench right now. Also, I already know about the top fill method, which does not work well for me. Thanks in advance for your help.

Always let your kayfun rest upside down to settle any juice still inside to the cap area.
Always use a Small needle an fill slowly to allow internal air to escape past the needle through the fill hole.
Always leave a bubble of Air in the Tank to establish Negative pressure.

A little liquid drip in not a problem. This could simply be fluid that has gathered in the Coil chamber.

What purpose was served in attempting to fill with the wick removed? :blink:
