I use PT/PT2/PT2mini single coil heads in my Aerotank all the time without gurgling or leaking. All you need to do is add a second grommet on top of the first (not inverted) and it makes it the same height as an Aerotank/PT3 dual coil head. To answer your other question, the Aerotank/PT3 dual coil heads will not fit in a PT/PT2/PT2mini because of the increased height of the dual coil head.

Sorry if the picture is a little fuzzy, but that's a rebuilt PT2 single coil head w/ an extra grommet for my Aerotank on the right, and a stock Aerotank dual coil head on the left.

That can't be a real autenthic pt coil is it?
My coils are the exact same length, only diffrence is that one is dualcoiled with more silica in it.

With that said my pro tank coils fits into aerotank without leaking, no extra grommet either.

:S

It's authentic. Mine look the same way. They are taller because the slit in the base is taller to allow two coils to sit one on top of the other.

That's odd, mine arent. i did double check now, the stem on pt2 is just tiny tiny bit lower not much at all. Other than that they look the same, except for the dualcoil & wicking.
Any way pt2 coils works fine in my tank, maybe i were lucky. :p
