A few things, 1. Looks at the bottom of the glass tube and the O-Ring, is it snug all the way around the tank itself. 2. Don’t fill it all the way up, only about 80%. 3. Try replacing the O-ring itself with the spare.
i noticed that the o rings doesnt sit on the bottom correctly, i mean the o ring wrapped but i can see
the bottom of the o ring when i look at the tank, like some kind of octopus arm (a few dots)
can it be the problem?

Probably. Take the tank apart and carefully put it back together, paying attention to how the o rings and the glass fit together. If the o ring is damaged, use one of the spares that came with the kit.

What's the level in the tank now?

I'm going to suggest you STILL replace that O ring, if you have one that looks weird. You may or may not have overfilled your tank, but when it comes to tank 0 rings and tolerances, it's possible your "weird" 0-ring may be maintaining PARTIAL tolerance as far as filling, meaning it might hold a vacuum to a certain POINT, say 1/2 or even 2/3 full, but can't handle a total fill (90% full). As it has vaped and leaked, it's possible it's just reached that "point" of fullness it can handle.

I know it can be annoying to strip down and replace 0-rings and whatnot, but intermittent leaking can be a sign the tank isn't quite "right" so to speak. Personally l would remove, replace and fill the thing (not on the mod) with a new 0-ring and see if it performs better. Alternately, I guess you could remove the tank from the mod, fill it to full, and see what happens. If it leaks, you will have your answer (at the expense of some eliquid, possibly) but you do want to make sure this problem is actually "solved."

If my coil is inserted correctly and my build (if it's an RTA) is good, the only reason I've ever gotten for leaking would be a tank that wasn't well machined and needed to be replaced, or O-ring issues.

Best of luck,

Anna
