Hello so it's been a long time since I've been on here. However I've been vaping since 8-2012. An I got my first Ego C twist last week. So today I went an got my second one with a Kranger Pro tank 2. The lady showed me how to put it together which I had already watched the you tube video from vapehappy however I got it all loaded with my new fluid. An I made sure all was good however I couldn't pull back on it at all. But I did do a little dry burn to make sure it was working an to let the juice get on the filters good. However still couldn't pull (take a puff). Anyway so I took the take off the battery an fluid was all on the battery. So I dried it all up cleaned it up blew thru everything to make sure it wasn't flooded. Got it all put back together on the battery. Still it want let me take a puff. What's going on. Not sure what's wrong an why it's leaked all the little caskets are on there good.
Please Any info would be great an thanks in advance.

Is it possible that you have screwed the tank onto the battery too tight? Take a toothpick or something really small and try to wiggle the post a tiny bit in the top of the battery. Does the new Protank work on your original Twist? Does whatever you were using before the Protank work on the new Twist?

Take the tank back apart and make sure the o-ring on the base is still there. Then make sure the coil is screwed down into the base. Then make sure the base ring is screwed well onto the tank. Put it back on the Twist but don't tighten it too much. Just until you feel it get snug. Turn the voltage all the way down on your Twist. Try again. Gradually increase the voltage between draws. Replace the coil if it still doesn't work.

It is possible that your coil is a dud. I have had 2 short out immediately. Does it work on your original Twist? What were you using before you got the first Twist?

    No you can't
    Check to see if the O-RING on the base is still there.

    The coil also has another O-RING.

    If they are both there then the seal is complete.

    Next look at the bottom of your coils

    Make sure the gasket at the bottom is not damaged.

    Your sucking to much air into the tank that's why your having a puffing issue and that's where it's leaking from.

    If the above doesn't help than add a flavor wick.

    I know I didn't put it on to tight I made sure to just make it snug. The pro tank would Not work even on my original twist it will not even let me suck an hair it's like it feels like something is blocking it. However I did blow thru the mouth piece cause it sounds flooded even when trying to do a dry burn an when I bow thru the mouth piece it just leaks out a lot of the fluid. The O ring is still there. However when looking really closely to the bottom O ring I could see like a little bit of a wire. Sticking out just a little from under the bottom o ring. What I was using before my first twist was pen style ecigs I've had no trouble with the extra tank an the tank that came with my first ego twist. So not real sure what's up with this. Even the other coil that came with the pro tank the bottom coil doesn't look right. It has a little lump like on one side like the where the wire underneath is. Just like this first one.

    Hey thanks. Yes the o rings are there. But I'm not able to get any air when trying to take a draw from it. It's like it's stopped up or something an it does have a flavor wick already there

    Thanks guys so much for the helpful info. I'm gonna try it all again in the morning. I just. Hate it was new I was so ready to try it out an ugh. A new bottle of juice with a new flavor I have yet to try which I did try it in the store. It's good. Anyway filling the tank with it an the weird thing is nearly half of that now has leaked out. I wish I would have got a bigger bottle of it now. Anyway thanks again. I'll post back in the morning if I get it to work an let ya know. Just glad we have a vaping store here in town now they sell all the stuff I need. I don't have to wait for mail order. :)

    Hey guys wanted to let you know that I changed the coil an cleaned everything made sure all O rings where in place an it works. However it still doesn't work on my new ego c twist.
    But I have another question. Could certain fluids possibly not work in the pro tank? just a thought.
    Thanks again for the help. An I'm glad to be back on the forum. ;)
    Happy Vaping :)

    Protank is like everything else - It's a learning curve

    Sometimes adding flavor wick helps other times removing it helps. - When draw is to tight for me 1st thing I do is remove the flavor wick. Check air holes on base of tank quick run under water to clean it than put it back on. Sometimes I back the tank off the base 1/4 to 1/2 a turn other times just back off tank a little from the device.

    Juice leaking out by 510 connect add more wick or thicken juice up a little with VG. I always get a little juice at the 510 connect I wipe it clean once in while.
