chinodos Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 I have a mya gyro and it seems extremely difficult to purge. Even with a release valve placed. Anybody have any advice on what to do about this?? Smoke last night got a bit harsh after I placed the second round of coals on and I couldn't get it out.

r1v3th3ad Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 ya, the ball probably needs cleaned...take a tooth brush and a cleaning agent...I use baking soda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably only used it about 10 sessions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryno Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Myas are a common chamber, meaning they will purge like crap. Theres not much you can do, I have a common chamber and it smokes great, just purges maybe the hose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kvtaco17 Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 (edited) use less heat, or manager your heat better... or avoid short draws... all those things make smoke harsh... not to even mention packing technique Edited August 7, 2009 by kvtaco17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres not much you can do, I have a common chamber and it smokes great, just purges maybe the hose.I made a purge tube by bending 1/4" brass tubing, flaring one end, and sticking it through the purge port after I enlargened the hole. It actually purges now.If I'm not mistaken, I think indian_villager did the same thing using a plastic straw.
