I had both my adys replaced by a VERY nice store owner, and now i have to break them in again. Im on my 2nd Cartridge and still getting that burny taste. Any suggestions other than sucking it up and going a few days with the taste?
Whats the fastest way to get rid of Primer?

find an analog smoker and let them puff away for a couple of hours.........they can't taste @#$%
I just blow mine out - but not sure if you have my model of PV. Blowing seems to work well enough, then i use a strong flavored juice so even if there's any left, i can't taste it

Yup, that's what I do too. Just make sure to blow from the threaded side until you fell like your forehead is going to explode and repeat until all the primer drips out.
I blew mine out then ran a healthy amount of plain PG through it and blew that out. One worked out perfect the other not so much. So in the future I'll run more PG through them.
If you have burnt taste you may have to resort to more drastic cleaning like PGA, that mouthwash people mention I think crest brand or denture cleaner. I had a similar burnt taste when I overdid a dryburn I filled the thing with PG like 3-4 times and blew it out. Worked better but still a slight burnt taste. I may soak this one in vodka for a bit see if that cleans it up.

Thats what i did to my second ady. I put it in Vodka overnight. Its dying right now. Hope that i can use it by tomorrow and then i can let the one im using right now soak a bit tomorrow.
I blow from the non threaded open side - cos I often flood my attys
so I can't stand the nasty burny taste of juice on my mouth (and I imagine primer would be way more foul) from the threaded end. I find my way just as, if not more than, efficient to clear old juice/primer.I have also used an alcohol bath for them if I get them a bit 'stunk up' with a strong juice, but ONLY drinking alcohol, never rubbing.
I have also found that sometimes when you get that "burnt" taste and you have cleaned your atty thoroughly, it can be caused by the poly filling that comes stock in the carts. If you find that you still get that taste after cleaning the atty, I would recommend changing the cart filler. Good Luck!
what about boiling them in water for a few minutes. has anyone tried that yet and if so what was the outcome? did it help get rid of the primer or does it destroy atomizers?
Here's a quick technique for getting rid of 99%+ of the primer.
-Blow through the cart end of the new atomizer pretty hard, until no more primer juice comes out.
-Fill atomizer with cheap juice, or pure PG or slightly diluted VG. This time blow through the battery threading side until all the liquid comes out. Repeat this 3 or 4 times, alternating blowing it out both ways (screw end and cart end) until the liquid coming out is completely clear.
-Put a filled cart into place in the atomizer, along with a drop or two of juice, directly on the wick, and give it a good 20 minutes, at least, to absorb the fluid. Then, cautiously at first, give it some quick test vapes to make sure the atomizer is good and saturated.
-If the test vapes go well, gradually take longer vapes, making sure your atomizer isn't running dry.
-Vape away!
