Follow-Up:
To prevent leaking/flooding when putting the top on after you’ve filled the tank, do the following:
- Fill the tank.
- Put the top cap on until the seal/o-ring hits the tank body so when you tilt it will not leak.
- Tilt the tank until the air pocket is over the carto punch/slot.
- Press the top cap all the way on.
This will force air as opposed to liquid into the carto. Just be aware that it will suck in a pretty fair volume of air. Far more than a tiny air bubble.
Thank to everyone including Dino for the assistance with this.

Regarding the “slidyness” of these tanks:
From Dino (thanks man!):
Phil. For your information, I experienced the same problem with those tanks as you did. I have a fix for you if you are interested. My wife liked them on her mod so i had to come up with a solution. If you replace the inner orings with a Metric Buna-N O-Ring 1.5 mm Width x 9 mm ID. It will fix the problem.

From Siam Mods:
Hi i’m the maker of Siam mods stuff.
If you like tight tanks then i guess the review is fair. The first batch were tight and maybe too tight when using the ”original” tank filler design. Guess you’ll never keep everyone happy. Using a decent drip tip the tank ain’t going anywhere. There’s a variation in DCC and cart diameters and these the larger diameter boges.
I’ll get the thicker o rings out to vendors to give with each tank for the option if they prefer tight or loose and can change to suit
By the way, this is terrific! Yes, everyone would have a different preference as to how they like they’re cartos to fit and their tanks to behave. I personally like a tighter fit for less of a chance of a juice disaster. And I also agree with “Guess you’ll never keep everyone happy”, believe me… I know! 🙂
Thanks for watching, addressing what may be an issue for some, AND providing a solution. The sign of a good vendor/manufacturer!!
