Sounds like you're doing something not quite right. The deal is: Drip 2 or 3 drops onto the atty. That should last for about 4-8 good draws, then you'll notice the flavor or vapor change slightly. That means time to add a couple more drops. I'm not a real "dripper" so someone correct me if I'm wrong, that's just the way *I* do it.
That's how I do it. If the vapor stops suddenly or there is very little of it, you need to blow out your atomizer into a paper towel. Put it back on the battery and take another draw BEFORE adding any more juice.
If the atty is flooded - remove your cart (not carto) and blow into the screw end to clear the excess juice out of the atty.
Is spring long enough to get the polyfill to the end of the cart so it can make contact with the atty when it's put back in?

Is the polyfill thick/wide enough to fill the entire end of the cart where it makes contact with the atty? If not the juice will flood the atty - in fact it may pour right out depending on how thin the juice is
sorry, ignore this 
you seem to have found someone that understands the problem/mod
you seem to have found someone that understands the problem/modI did blow out the juice, still doesnt work.
I think it is big enough. Cant be sure.
AP - it's like the straw method but uses a spring instead of the straw. I personally just went with the blue foam, less than the length of the cart and fold it in half. Wicks great and keeps it from leaking/dripping if you set it on it's side. But normally I sit it up right in a cup with the atty end down. Been using that since mid August - well till I got my ego-tanks a couple of weeks ago!
ID: Check to see if there is juice in the battery connector side - get a tissue or q-tip and run it slowly around and see how much juice you pick up
you'll know it's big/wide enough if you hold the cart upside down for a couple of min and nothing drips out. The poly should look wet, but not dripping wet.
What exactly is your blue foam method? I can't get this ADM to work!
No straw - just blue foam. After washing it really well in hot water to clear out the nasty plastic taste... Cut it a bit wider then the opening of the cart and about 3/4ths the length. Then fill the cart with juice almost to the top. Fold the foam in half and tuck it into the cart opening, I use an unbent paper clip to adjust it. (cause I'm simple like that lol) I gently shove it down under the juice to get rid of air bubbles, then pull it back into place using the long end of the paper clip. Top off with a drop or 2 of juice (it should look wet) and slap it on an atty.
Before you try this - let me ask - did you get any juice off the battery?

Will the atty fire up (snap crackle or pop - well, hopefully no pop!) when you put it on the batt without a cart? I'm wondering if the atty died?
And good luck with the blue foam - you really need to wash it well to get the plastic taste off them. It also softens it and makes it more flexible.
Keep trying things - just like you couldn't blow smoke rings when you first started smoking, nor kill a pack a day ;-) there is a learning curve. Heck 3 months from now you probably won't even use this PV and will have moved on the bigger and better!

I tried your method, and it still flooded. Im beginning to think maybe I did flood the batteries. I tried a brand new atty, no luck. I get the same burnt taste I gor before (probably from the dry filler being burnt) It does crackle though.
Blow the atty out. You may have primer in it (nasty stuff, primer)
Drip 4 drops on the atty and wait a couple of min. Then fire it up and see if it sizzles. If not a steady sizzle sound then stop. wait a min, drip 2 more drops and try again. Some attys come full of nasty tasting primer. Some come dry and have to be primed.
Make sure the blue foam comes all the way to the top of the cart and make sue it's wet before you put it in the atty.
