Kayfun Lite Plus Clone Rebuildable Atomizer TOBECO- refill screw issues

[juan9999]

I bought a Kayfun Lite Plus Rebuildable Atomizer clone (Tobeco) and the refill screw won't come out unless I "push" it from the inside with a pin (when tank is empty). This happened after the first refill. After refilling, it also seemed that the screw wouldn't get tighter but I've had no leaks.

Is it just a bad tank or a bad screw? I have juice in it now, so I don't want to loose it by opening the top cap.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I had this happen to me the other day. I went to unscrew the refill screw but it wouldnt come out of the hole. I still had enough juice in the tank so I didnt mess with it and screwed it back down. Mine will screw back down tight though.

Its probably just crappy threads on the screw or refill hole.

Best to clean it up and take it Screw hunting.
You will want a slightly better fitting screw a bit longer.
Longer will allow you to grab it once loose.
Tighter so it doesn't eventually leak like an old sink.

Happy hunting
This might help - depends on which part is causing the problem

I bought that exact kit, because I needed the center pin and insulators. I also swapped out the fill screw and the grub screw. Both seemed like better quality than tobeco's original. My fill screw still worked, but I used to be able to put in in and just spin it forever. The grub screws also used to strip out easy, so far everything's been working perfect with fatdaddy's parts.

Thanks guys. Seems the screw is probably the culprit. When I finish my tank I'll remove it and try putting in the one that came with my russian. If that works, getting a good screw (only) would be amazing!
