Vaping has become a popular alternative to smoking, but many people are new to the experience and may not know how to fix common issues like vape gurgling.
This guide will explain what causes vape gurgling and how to fix it.
Why is my Vape Gurgling? How To Fix
There are a few common reasons why your vape is gurgling and making annoying noise.
If your vape is gurgling and flooded with e-liquid, then try the following steps to fix it.
1. Leaking Tank
If your vape tank is leaking, then it’s likely that e-liquid is getting into the airflow chamber and causing the gurgling and spitting.
It’s the most common reason why a vape mod creates a gurgling sound. To fix this issue, ensure that your tank is properly sealed and that there are no cracks or leaks.
2. Burnt Vape Coil
If your vape coil is burnt, then it’s not vaporizing the e-liquid properly, and this can cause a gurgling sound.
A dirty coil is also responsible for gurgling because it won’t hit at full capacity. You should clean your vape coil every second day.
To fix this, replace the burnt coil with a new one. Use a hair dryer to blow out excess liquid if your vape coil is already flooded with e-liquid.
3. Check E-Liquid Level
Every vape tank has its capacity to hold the vape juice. Excess e-liquid in your vape tank can result in flooding, gurgling, and spit-back.
To fix this, simply check the level of your e-liquid and make sure it’s not overfilled. Ensure that you fill the vape juice slightly lower than its maximum level.
4. Clogged Airflow
If your airflow is clogged, it will restrict airflow and cause a gurgling sound. It usually happens when we fill the vape tanks more than their maximum capacity.
Also, some dust particle clogs the airflow and won’t pass sufficient air when vaping.
To fix this, clean out the airflow chamber and ensure no debris is blocking the airflow.
5. Incorrect VG/PG Ratio
Your vape juice is also responsible for the gurgling sound. Using an e-liquid with a high VG (Vegetable Glycerin) content can cause gurgling because VG is thicker than PG (propylene glycol).
To fix this issue, try using an e-liquid with a higher PG content or thinning out your VG e-liquid with distilled water.
6. Drag Slowly
Taking quick, short drags on your vape can also cause a gurgling sound. This is because you’re not giving the e-liquid enough time to vaporize properly.
To fix this, take long, slow drags on your vape so that the e-liquid has time to vaporize.
7. Prime Your Vape
Excess e-liquid while priming your vape coil can also create a gurgling sound.
To fix this, simply check the level of your e-liquid and make sure it’s not overfilled. Wipe off any excess e-liquid before you start vaping.
8. Check Power Settings
If your power setting is too high, it can cause your vape coil to burn out quickly and create a gurgling sound.
Set your coil’s power setting at the correct wattage to fix this. You can find this information on the coil packaging or in the user manual for your device.
Conclusion
These are some common reasons why your vape is gurgling. By troubleshooting and finding the root cause of the issue, you can fix it and enjoy a smooth vaping experience.
