Try flipping it.. flip back blow down through tip... do it 3 times...Before I went back to blowing down into tip I tried primer puffs and it would take a good 30 minutes for me to get it wicking on its own
I hunt down the best deals, with US shipping, free US shipping when I can find it. eBay has become my favorite vape store. And yeah I know about the eBay thing, I changed the PW, but since all the financial stuff is thru PayPal, it's really not that big a deal. eBay doesn't have my accts' info, PayPal does.
Today I ordered a frost white M tank, since I'm enjoying this Smoke colored tank so much; paid $9.99/free US ship for the smoke; the frost white was just $7.99/free US ship. We finally got notification that our fed refund will be delivered by the 29th, so I'll be able to get one of those quartz-glass tanks.

Never tried blowing into it before! Makes perfect sense though for building the pressure that way!
Gonna have to try that one
I should add my clones all have 2mm air holes. I either bought them that way or drilled them out to 2mm. I leave the air adjustment wide open or the screw not even in. I run about 2 tanks a day depending on how many I have in rotation. Change my wicks out about every 7 to 10 days when they become too wet
Works for me everytime. I used to have to do that as I overfilled them....lol. Dont over fill now but still build up pressure by blowing into the tip
As long as I did not overfill it very little juice comes out the air hole when I blow into it. I just think it builds up pressure that starts the wicking process

Cool! Learned a new trick today! It worked great! I've ways done the primer puffs till I made it gurgle then it hard to burn off the juice that got in the line- that trick worked flawlessly!
The tobeco I have has the 2mm air holes. At first I kept it nearly closed, about 3/4 closed, but I find that I'm enjoying it more and more open, the longer I have it and fiddle with it. Guess it's just an adjustment process, from the t3s tanks I was so used to, since they have a fairly tight draw.

This after about a week of use. And mine dont stop wicking after using them for a week... they get wetter and then I replace just the wick. Dry burn the coils... well steam clean the coil. I run it under water dry burn it and repeat a couple of times. Any crud on coils i brush it off

Lol still can't see the second one.
I change the cotton on every refill.
I figure cotton is cheap and I'd rather change it than be out n about and have the wick crap out on me. To don't being anything with me other than a spare battery.

This is how I wick when I'm doing horizontal coils.
I never roll my cotton to squish it. I tear out a lump of cotton, and smooth it out towards both ends to get it skinnier and stop when it's slighter fatter than my coils. At this point the cotton is completely fluffy still. Then I roll it very very very lightly; it's to get it in shape (cylindrical), not to squish it so that it fits. Once it's in, I can very very easily slide my cotton to and fro without resistance from the coil
Snip off excess:
Fold the little end over. Juicing the wick makes it super easy to shape it
Works like a charm for me; and I never get dry hits. Also using 1/16 drill bit at either 15watts or 19 watts.

I know alot of flavor junkies do that change coil with every fill. Even when I change flavors I dont change the wick. Never never been left high and dry with a kayfun. And the coils last forever and ever. I just changed my father in laws wick for him this weekend. He was still vaping on a 5 week old wick. Still producing a good vape ( a tank a day) but he did notice how much better a new wick was. He will probably go another month before I change his wick again
Gotta love PCs.
Cotton looks like its in good shape after a weak of use. Then again I don't really rotate so much.
I only have 3 kfuns and 2 of them get used daily.
The ehpro V2 is my all day; usually with an ry4 or vanilla type flavor
At might I pop the black edition on with a really swear desert vape
And I leave the the authentic someplace close at hand with one of the premiums in it for when the mood strikes- think its for grandmaster in it right now.
Sad part is I really prefer the ehpro v2 out of all three and that was the cheapest.
One of these days I'll start amassing the huge collections like all you cool guys have- lol

Well I used a bit more cotton, pulled the wicks up, screwed on the lower portion of the chimney, cut the wicks slightly above the chimney, carefully placed the wick ends into the chamber, primed the wick, screwed on the top portion of the chimney, reinstalled tank section, filled her up, checked resistance(still at 1.25ohms), blew into it 3 times, and vaped.
Well after 10 good pulls, no dry hits. The wicking must be working, because im pretty sure the initial saturation of the wick must have been vaporized by now. The AFC is screw is flush with the bottom, and the draw is a lot better.
Thanks everyone for the help, and feedback.
