Not sure what size coil you are using. I know that dry hits went away for me on the kayfun when I increased the size of the coil from 1.4mm to 2mm.
Persevere with KFL clone or something else?

I had 2 original KFL+ and my usuall setup was a 2.5mm diameter coil, around 1.3 - 1.4Ω. I was vaping for about 2 months with this setup without any issues. Then I ordered a 1:1 clone from fasttech and when I tried the same setup I had leaks all the time and more rarely dry hits. After a lot of trial and error I found out that the quantity of the cotton I was using was wrong. For an unspecified reason the same build that I was using in the originals was not working correct in the clone. My point is that usually the reason for this kind of issues is the cotton quantity. You might have to try a lot to find the correct amount.
I've tried so many different set ups now, loads of different cotton amounts, molding it to the side of the block, off the juice channels, on the juice channels. With the subtank I can throw a build on it and it will almost always work, maybe better sometimes than others but i can always get a vape from it.
I understand your furstration and maybe you are right. Maybe you have reached the point where you should just move on and get another atty 
If the kayfun is causing you grief stop using it.
If you enjoy building coils go for the Lemo 2.
No leaks or dry hits, just consistent quality vaping, with kanthal, Ni, Ti, and SS.
Give rayon a go as wicking material, you could be surprised.

I've just ordered a Goblin Mini, Coil Master, wire and ceramic tweezers. Not bad for £25 from GearBest.
Apparently the Goblin Mini can be a mouth to lung tank if you close down airflow and use the single coil adapter so I'll give it a try. Also if it doesn't work out I haven't spent too much!

Goblin mini is one of my favorite RTAs at the moment, hope you enjoy it. I use it wide open, but it can be closed down, my wife runs hers about half open on the airflow.
It works, can be a little loose, but hasn't been an issue for me. I am using the glass tip that came with it right now, but last week I used the adapter and a shorty 510 DT without a problem.
If you don't like the glass, and just want to use your own DTs all the time, I've seen other users make the DT adapter a permanent fixture by super gluing it down, haha.
You might be putting in too much juice. Try leaving some space on top of the juice so there is some air pressure on top. It helps to push down the juice. Or else try taking a few prime puffs while covering the air hole. That will force juice into the channel.
probably the deck.
Had a EHPro KFL where they didnt mill the juice channels going up the chimney deep enough and had the exact same issue.
I'd try dremeling them bigger or getting a authentic KFL. Or a Goblin XD Goblin mini has a single coil option and I hear the flavor is pretty good too.
