Amn_sinclair Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 alright so im smoking out of my new baby as im typing and i have to admit its smoking pretty damn good. Not a bad deal if i have to say myself. I like this one doesnt smoke like my other hookahs though so its gonna take a little work to used to it and ill figure it out after experimenting with water levels and stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amn_sinclair Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 ok one complaint on the new hookah. I cant purge it right now when i try it just blows water up the stem... Maybe its clogged. Anyone have some ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 take off the purge valve and check the purge ball, it is most likely stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the idiot before me put a smaller one in there and it fell inside. That would explain the blockage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zinite Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 When you're done smoking stick a wire in the bottom side of the purge valve and try and fish it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amn_sinclair Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 lol alright so i think i solved the problem. The person who originally owned the hookah had put what looked like a piece of foil down the purge hole. It was deep in there so i couldnt see it without a flashlight. So i used the prodder from my tongs and pushed it through. Only problem now? It didnt fall out the bottom of the bell. So i have a piece of foil floating around in there till it decides to come out lol. I havent tested it yet to see if it works but im sure that was the problem. Ill post a pic of the hookah as soon as i get to work in the morning.so y would someone plug the purge? My only guess is nht use... Which this is germany so it wouldnt surprise me. glad i gave it a good cleaning first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amn_sinclair Posted September 16, 2009 Author Share Posted September 16, 2009 ill admit its not the highest quality hookah. It does smoke like a champ and the vase is what attracted me to it. i already found a bb this morning. Kinda weird found a random bb in my kitchen lol.

So it is an egyptian hookah. And i like those coals to they may take longer then quick light but i can get easy 3+ hour sessions if i just use 2 or 3 whole ones!

r1v3th3ad Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 the vase appears to be made by the same people who make KM and MZ frosted vases because I have two similiar to thatby the looks of the hose port, looks like its the same brand egyptians that H-S has as noname brands...reason why is my buddy owns one and it has very similar looks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
