joytron Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Try less water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohhhplatty Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 I put as little water as possible for it to bubble and it always finds a way to bubble into the hose port and even over the base grommet and all over the base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatalshizot Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 This is puzzling as I've never had this issue with my bambino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizzbizz Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I've also never heard of water coming between the stem and base. Do you even have a grommet there? Sounds like a massive air leak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohhhplatty Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 Yes I have the grommet and there's no air leak because it still smokes great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavo21 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 try not to draw some hard u dont need to inhale as hard as possible to smoke. that is probably the reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chreees Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I'd wait for Mushrat or MyaHookah to chime in. They should know what's going on and be able to help solve the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatalshizot Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Can you post pics of your setup? I think everyone wants to see your water level lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohhhplatty Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 I'll put pics up later because I'm not smoking right now but I usually put the water an inch above the end of the down stem. It was still splashing water everywhere so I tried 1/2 an inch and it still happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I will have to pull my out when I get home but if I remember correctly... Top of the fourth row of pyramids should be the water line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawhee Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 This happened to me when I owned a cheap chinese knockoff, all the symptoms, vase was crap and you couldnt possibly fill er up decently and have it not bubble, same issue with the gasket being leaky and water getting between it and the vase with full functionality, obviously the hose rusted since it had constant water exposure and shit, if youre 100% sure its an original mya youre gonna have to wait for mush to chime in and also ya, provide pics so we can see the issue! Hope this gets resolved soon for ya :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohhhplatty Posted July 25, 2013 Author Share Posted July 25, 2013 I bought it from a restaurant/hookah lounge that carried only Myas and it has all the mya logos on it so I don't think it's a knock off. I'll take pictures when I smoke it tomorrow :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getby25 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) If you are using very opend hose... but when I am smoking mine with Nammor it was fine, but with my Asli I guess it will Edited July 31, 2013 by getby25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 This was going to be my first question, what kind of hose are you using? so the water is bubbling up into the stem and thus into the hose ports as well. I really haven't heard of this happening with the bambino, but that just means no one has mentioned it before. I would like to see a picture or three if possible. Usually water in the ports isn't a Mya issue. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohhhplatty Posted July 31, 2013 Author Share Posted July 31, 2013 I perfected the water level to Stuies advice on the 4th row of pyramids and only a little gets in the hose now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightHawk63 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 I never had any sort of an issue like that with my QT :\ and it's about the same size I think. Maybe an inch or two off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
