I'm having issues with my Reo firing. The issue just started. My Reo will only fire when I have the mod tipped sideways. I have the airhole on my rba facing away from the button (on the skinny side). It will only fire when the airhole is pointing towards the ceiling. When the device is perpendicular to the floor it will do an incredibly weak fire, or it will not at all. Only when it is parallel with the floor will it fire.
My Reo won't fire

The airhole on the RDA should always point up! It may be flooding if you are trying to vape with it down, the airhole will be clogged with juice and will appear like it's not firing. Also check and make sure your RDA's screws are tightened and check the Reo'sp spring to make sure it is not collapsed.
Check for a loose screw on the post they can work loose over time. Also look for a broken leg on the coil.
The air hole is always facing up either way i vape. I don't like holding the mod straight in front of me like a cig.
the air hole position only maters for leakage, the Reo should fire in any position including upside down, but don't do that you'll get a mouth of liquid 
, I know. If it is positional it's something loose

Yank off the drip tip and look inside. Do you see more juice than what the wick can soak up? If so, I'm betting that's the issue.
Make sure you are not turning the button just enough for it to lock. That sometimes happens even now to me.
I try to always turn it a little to the on position before I push it. If I hold it different to make sure my air hole on the RM2 is up sometimes I turn the button enough for it not to fire.

Problem solved! Thanks for the help. I believe it was a couple issues. Firstly my coil kept rising up and loosening the coils. I made a new .87 ohm coil (is that too low??) and made sure the wire underneath the screws was straight and tight. I also found out my AW IMR battery was bobo. The battery worked fine on other mods but was no good on my reo. I just received two new ones and they work fine. I believe both were contributing factors.
glad you got it worked out. no that ohm is fine as long as you like the vape. I vape anywhere from .7 to 1.2 depending on my mood. I've got two Reos and 7 RBAs coiled so I just switch the topper to change my vape.
4 RM2s, 2 regulars and 2 LP versions. 1 of each in brass. I like playing with different coils builds and such. As I experiment I always have my standard build ready and waiting in case the experiment was a dud and it also makes doing comparisons easier.
For the battery that was "bobo" check the button top for little black marks. If it has them then your firing pin needs to be cleaned and noaloxed, because its arcing. Same fate will happen to your new batteries. If it does have arc marks just use a little sand paper or something to clean the top of the battery. I have had this happen lots of times.

ask Rob how many i have! i think it's 14. greed motivates me!
rebuilding coils is something i have become very proficient at. My Reo has a mercury tilt switch and it will not vape until level.
