I have used less and more cotton have no wicking issues either way. Most of the time I take a piece of cotton and roll it tight and twist it into my coil...as long as the wick just touches the shelf no issues

Yeah this is the first time it's happened since I got it. It might be the juice. I got some 65/35 coming in and it can't get here fast enough.
Something I just found out that has helped me immensely with both my KFL+ and my R91 is tightening up the air flow. For a long time, I was vaping them both wide open (and got nice big billows, which is what I was after 
) but I was getting the dry hits described by the OP. Tightening the draw about halfway cured the dry hits, and while vapor fell off a little, it wasn't much and I got a boost in flavor to make up for it. Until I listened to one of Todd's reviews where he explained how vacuum tanks (like the KFL+ and the R91) actually work, I didn't realize that when you tighten the draw, you are pulling more liquid into the chamber, thus eliminating dry hits. OTOH, if you're getting gurgling and flooding, loosen the draw and it goes away. Air flow control is a lot more important than I ever knew ...

Put a couple drops of alcohol or water in your juice to thin it a hair.
Did you try tipping it upside down maybe a vapor lock.... had that happen once on a refill.
I looked at your pics for a wire from your coil out of wack but it looks good

And Yes WhiteChapel, me too hence the avatar. Deliver Us is 1000% amazing album, followed closely by Undoing Ruin IMO. All albums are killer though.
And I screwed my air-flow screw back in about half way and noticed a huge change as well. Little less vapor, but flavor improved and havent got a dry hit yet.
