You might want to try loosening the cap on the bottle just a tad. That will allow more air in and should stop the self-feeding. Also check that you are not over tightening your atty or cartos.

Also...auto feeding can be caused by warmer temperatures, a clogged atty, or an o-ring that has bunched up or is otherwise out of place. If it is not the o-ring or the atty, then I suggest using the reducer tube that came in the plastic baggy. It slows the flow of juice through the feed tube. It is small and very clear, so it may be difficult to see in the baggy. Here are a couple pictures...

I recommend you cut your reducer tube in half so that you have a spare if you need it.

Sometimes if the feed tube is starting to get "gunked up", mine will start to get juice collecting in the juice cup. I usually take the bottle, battery and carto/atty off, and fill the cup with vodka and let sit till it runs down and out the tube. That always fixes the problem.

I have had that happen. And all it takes to fix is adjusting the cap on the bottle. In fact just a couple days ago one of my REO's was self-feeding. I loosened the cap and it stopped.

Congrats at having everything working again. Sometimes it's the small things that creates the most problems.
