you got your diver to stop leaking? please share
Well, the first base that I had was bad. None of my pins and cups would seat all the way due to the delrin piece in the base being to short. He sent me another, and that problem was solved.
Make sure the pin, and cup are a tight fit. Don't push to much wire up inside the pin, and make sure the pin and cup are fully seated on the delrin, and that they are straight.
Make sure your wick is not pushed down to far into the cup, and keep it from touching the air inlet at the bottom of the cup. Ensure the wick ends aren't to long. They should not touch the threads on the base when putting the barrel/tube on. The wick ends should run perpendicular to the juice intake hole.
Do not use the fill hole in the tank. Put the diver in from the bottom, and leave enough room to fill through the top, and then push the diver the rest of the way up and out the top. I also put the hole facing the back side of the tank this time. I don't know if it matters though.
I am by no means an expert. This is the first time I have gotten it right. I was so ...... earlier today, I was about to throw it in the trash, so others here can probably give better advice. If you can get it working, it really is an awesome atty. Vapor and flavor are very impressive.
