Not before first use. Did clean it afterwards.

Hi Susaz,
After i started putting in replacement heads on the Kanger T2, i started having problems. But as skelley pionted out, this stuff needs cleaned. After i soaked my replacement heads in vodka, then hot water, then overnight to dry, problem gone. I also added a flavor wick over the coil to the bottom of the tank, made out of cotton emboidary floss, as skelley said his replacement wicks had this but mine didn't.
Are you useing a variable voltage battery?

How long have you been using it? After awhile, they sometimes get like a hard dark "ball" of burnt juice on the coil. This seems to only happen with the darker juices when you don't clean them enough. Once that appears across the coil there seems to be no way to get rid of it.

Around a week. Thing is that with 50/50 juice none of my heads were working properly, it was like vaping through a cloud of grease. I cleaned them up and changed to 60/40 and now it wicks a little better, but far from the original mounds of vapor on 3.2v that I was getting when the head was brand new.

I have not used 50/50 in 3 months of clearomizer use, so, i can't help there, but you said it worked good when new. How long did it take to not work well?

Two or three days. It does this with Halo Midnight Apple juice that I lower with glicerin (High PG hurts my mouth). It's very thick, so much takes a long time out a syringe. With my other juices it works fine and makes me wonder how others do with 100% VG...

The coils must be dry burned,I usualy to a batch at the same time. First soak and rumble about in cup of quite warm water dry off and press any other moisture with tissue which is more absorbent. Reassemble atty after you have washed and dried it also
and screw on coil leave the silicone top and the top metal insert off. Press for 3 secs blow into atty helps to remove burning gunga 3 seconds again and keep repeating until you see the coil glowing red. Wash wick and coil to remove any smoke residue dry as before and insert including silicone sleeve. Your Kanger T2 will now be the most amazing vape you ever had. I use my kanger T2 on an ego twist and vape at 4.2 volts which brings out the flavour in buckets. Prior to using this process e the max I could only vape at on the twist was 3.2 volts and hit and miss with vapour flavour and occasional burnt taste.

I'm not a huge fan of dry burning, to me it shortens wick life. But I did try yesterday and so far, so good...
