Tricks to open this thing

[PatVapes]

Open the hood of your car, have someone start it and rev it and press the atty against the belt. Odds are the top will come off and you will learn a valuable lesson: Never pay attention to my advice.

Thank god I don’t have a car lol

I noticed no one mentioned a key point. You're tightening your tanks too tight! It'll be easier to open the next time if you don't overtighten. OK, I'll stop now. Y'all can carry on telling OP how to take apart his stuck tank.

Unfortunately not always... mine was just because juice got dried in the oring

I got my tank stuck on my mod one time.

As it turned out........it was actually the mod which was stuck to the tank. And not the other way round thank god.

So..........

Problem solved !.

I've seen these on ebay.

They make something like that for tanks. I don't know who sells them off hand.

I have luck sticking tanks in the freezer.

Also, there are these (but, I just use the round rubber jar opener pads).

If you like real tools then search for "cannon plug pliers". A bit more expensive but look like they would be perfect for this application.

I have 2 of these and they are horrible. First the grip is made to fit 22mm. Anything else is going to be a problem. I used these on a 24mm and that pin that aligns the 2 legs are no longer in the hole. So you have to align yourself manually (not easy). And you can't use the end for leverage, since the tweezers end will dig into your hand when you squeeze. Cheap? Yes! Useful! Very questionable.

Rubber gloves have always solved any issues where I can't get a tank apart or get a tank off a mod. Don't even need to put them on - just holding them in my hands always seems to do the trick!
