I've been using a 20VG/80PG (straight no water) mix for a long time and it worked great with dripping, I've recently bought the new BCT heating coils from Volcano and they seem to clog really fast with my liquid ratio. I bought a bottle of their Premium USA liquid and it is way thinner than my stuff and doesn't clog the coils. My question is, do I need to be trying a 90/10 mix or adding water? I thought I would ask for some pointers before I start trying to figure out my mix.
Thank you
Lori

Seeing as how the viscosity of a 50/50 vg/pg mix is generally the industry standard, I would have to say 80% PG is perfectly fine and there are other issues afloat.

If that was a typo and the ratio is flipped to 80% VG, I would add 10% distilled water and maybe 2% pure grain alcohol or or some saline for good luck.
