Help with my Russian 91

[1happyheretic]

Ok, i'm having no problem building the coils and getting it to fire, but when i assemble it, there is no air flow whatsoever!!!! What's up with this? I adjusted the air flow screw, still....NOTHING!!!! What the hell am I doing wrong here? Please help a guy with his first rba who was super excited and am now just super freaking frustrated.

Did you make sure that there is some gap between the air hole and your wick/coil?

The problem: The draw is too tight even when air flow screw is completely unscrewed.

The reason: Very large coil and/or wick
What happens: Air flow in evaporation chamber gets obstructed
What to do: Setup the coil and wick correctly

The reason: The blockage of the air duct
What happens: Something obstructs the airflow through the duct
What to do: Remove the obstruction

Just got mine in and it's vapeing great. But one thing I tried was a couple of strong unpowered draws and it plugged up! I did a couple presses of the power button without puffing on it and it cleared up and is back to normal now. I'm not sure why a couple of hard unpowered draws would plug the draw but the draw is back to normal.

The draw on my Russian 91% just blocked up again. This time I blew thru the air intake hole and it unblocked the draw.
Stay tuned.
