Yeah because I love a tighter draw and on mine, if I move it more than a quarter turn, it gets too airy for me. But I like mine that way so less moving things around.

Anyway, try moving it from totally closed to literally fractions of open to see what happens. Like Zor, I am puzzled as well since it does shut off the draw when closed. There should be some incremental steps between closed and too airy.

Hi

I also did had some problems in get in control of the ufs, my experience to get arround this was close everything open just a litle bit the feeding system, give a suck to feel the gorguling, then I open a litle bit the air and test, if not ok open a litle more the air, then if not ok the feeding system... by repeting this until I get the spot point...

That is the correct process barman. The only other thing I can think of would be a clogged atty. I would take that atty out and cover just the bottom hole on the connector with your finger. Then wrap a bit of paper towel around the 2 side holes on the connector and blow through the top of the atty. You should get juice and air out of the side holes.

You did the write-up on the wiki, which I thank you for. Someobdy just pointed it out to me abotu 10 minutes ago.

I read it... I seem to do everything correctly; however, in the many, many times I have assembled my UFS I notice somethign...

"Check between the bottom of the tank base and the top of the catch tank, you should not be able to see the o ring on the outside of the base of the tank. If you can see it, something is not seated properly"

I think every time I have seen the o-ring. And I have put it together correctly...

Hmm, it could be an seal/leaking issue if enough of the ring is showing, mine don't seem to show at all.
I think wigglr said that he didn't have any leaks though, just the opposite almost.
During use, I've only seen that o-ring a few times, when I didn't lube the top cap o-ring
and it spun my atty loose enough for the juice control to turn that far.

With the atty tightened down properly, top cap set up right,
and UFS body properly attached to the collection tank,
the base shouldn't be able to turn enough to see more than a hint
of the o-ring in question, if I'm thinking right here..:oops:
