Need quick help guys -

Cartomizer got a burnt taste that won't go away now so I need to switch it. Since there is no easy way to drain the liquid from the BB tank first, I want to just remove the carto and let the liquid drain into a cup, to re-use later, but I cannot get the carto out at all! It's like the liquid is keeping is suctioned in there good, I can't seem to get it to budge at all. I even stuck a Yo Mama carto tank filler adapter in the carto to push down on, and it still won't move!

Any advice??

EDIT: Well maybe I spoke too soon, but I pushed down on the carto adapter with all my force with a tissue in my hand, and it finally budged down enough to remove the carto, but god I felt like I was gonna break the tank in pieces! lol. Hope someone can give a better method! What if you didn't have a Yo Mama adapter like that?!

Just, I have found that I have to kind of work the carto back and forth abit to finally get it out, they are snug for sure. I had to change mine last night with a full tank. What I did was get the carto broke loose by pushing it slightly back and forth, once free, I stick my new carto up on the old one (top of new one over the bottom of the old one) and then slide it up. Didn't loose a drop of juice hardly. Hope that makes sense.

That would save a lot of time and effort, thanks!

I use a cheap aluminum drip tip I keep around, insert it into the carto after taking the tank out, and push like a ..... When it pops out the bottom, the drip tip on the top prevents a mad dumping of liquid out. Tip it upright, pull out the drip tip and syringe out the juice. Some cartos are tighter than other though. Ikenvape punches wedge in there like there's no tomorrow, but I have some new ones that slide out a bit easier (even though they're not as good as IKV.
