laxicon347 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Alright, on my 2hose junior, it is impossible to pull with the auto-seal bearing in, they seem to be blocking both ways. Anyone got an idea on how to fix it?It doesnt really bother me that much, just that I have lazy friends and hate having to constntly remind them to plug the hose...

Scoop Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 try BBs or pellets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teq Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 There's probably a pressure issue.Try adjusting the water and making sure there's no moisture in the valve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjdx88 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Just take em out, It was nice at first when I was using mine but I find they restrict air flow a bit or in this case smoke flow.Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1v3th3ad Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I'd honestly say take that lil ball region out all together...my "cage" for mine on the one hose(its a two hose) rotted away and I love it...better pulls and I can now purge the hookah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voski Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Does pam get sticky when it dries? If it does then that's a big problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjelder Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I took mine out alltogether if there are 2 smokersIf not, I take the ball bearing out of mine, but leave the one in the other.No matter what, whatever hose I'm smoking will NOT have a ball bearing in it. Sucks ass, and you can't blow to get stale smoke out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuie Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I converted my mya to autoseal and never have had a problem with it yet. The mya auto seals are so easy to clean just need a screwdriver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
