eroticbuddha Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Hey, i just bought my first hookah and the ball bearings keep getting stuck.i Have to unscrew them and use a Qtip to get them unstuck and then screw them back in and about two drags later, they stick again. I don't know if i need to oil them or if i am not cleaning them correctly or what. does anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zinite Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 A little olive oil couldn't hurt. You can also buy a pack of plastic bb's used in Airsoft Guns and try using one of them instead of the metal ball bearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alademuerte Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Never tried the idea of using any kind of oil in the release valve.... But is it an older hookah or a new hookah? If it's new, then maybe its got some rough edges that are catching the ball bearing. Try taking a piece of sandpaper and just rubbing a corner of the paper in there to smooth it out a little bit. Same applies to an old hookah, but try sanding the ball too. The Airsoft pellet might be a good option too if your problems keep continuing.
