MVP 2 not hitting right, maybe some kind of blockage?

[AmandaJoVS]

I've had my MVP 2 for a little over 3 months. For the last few days, it just hasn't been hitting right. It has a very tight draw and I have to vape for the whole 10 seconds just to get a somewhat decent hit. At first I thought it was my tank, so I tried swapping it out with all of my others (nautilus, iClear30, Vivi Nova, various Aspire BDC's) and all have the same effect. They all have new coils, too. I clean everything regularly and I also tried lifting up on the pin slightly, as suggested by a friend but it's still not hitting right. VERY frustrating. Any suggestions?

No suggestion but I'm having the same problem and mine is only a week old. Mine also (I don't know the lingo) has a hit with no power.

what watts/volts are you running at?? have you changed juice makers lately?
try drawing off of the tanks when they arent on the MVP and check for airflow, put it back on the MVP and draw again to see if airflow is reduced ( dont use the power button) if the airflow is reduced considerably, check to see if the 510 connection is blocking the airflow holes in the bottom of your tanks. You may want to consider a tank that has airflow control that isnt drawing air from the bottom of the 510 connector on the tank... 2 tanks I can think of that have airflow control as mentioned are the Trojan and the Spartan....

I agree clean your 510 connections good and check your settings

If your connector is really gunky, use a q-tip and some rubbing alcohol. Double check to make sure your air channels are clear, soak the tanks in hot water for a bit if need be. Mine did the same thing after a month at one point I ripped it apart and cleaned the crap out of the 510, I mean scrapped it and pried it all over. It was a stubborn little bugger. The problem was it got gunked up on the side of the pin and set at an angle.

You might also try it withoutthe beauty ring on it. If that helps, take a wire bread tie & clear out the air holes in it. I just drilled mine out to 3/32".

Thanks for the suggestions everyone! I cleaned the heck out of my 510 connection again (Can't hurt, right?) and played with the pin a little and I think it has helped somewhat. I thought I was doing a good job about keeping it clean and I'm always very careful not to screw my tanks on too tight so I'm not sure how the pin got pushed down, but I used an old earring to try and lift it up a little and it seems to have helped. I still don't feel like it's 100%... I think I'm only feeling fairly satisfied considering I've been having to suck until I was blue in the face to get a decent hit. Lol
