Stubby tank

[Rickster]

Quick search on Ebay only show 1mm increments I'd guess at 3mm

I did as up suggested and emailed customer service at suicide mods, hopefully they will get back to me if not the above should do.

Edit: think that link is dead

Good news Suicide Mods have spare rods in stock, which I think they plan to put on their website soonish, Aaron at customer services is sending me out replacement rods today free of charge

Replacement rods arrived today, straight away noticed a big difference these ones are looser in the rod holes, my OG ones needed to be twisted n forced in....so we are off and running and it's wicking like a champ

Glad to hear it, the first stubby tank I had that Gary has got, the rods were very tight in the holes ehen i got it but when I cleaned it for the first time I think I put them back in different holes and they all fit looser and worked better.

Bizzare.....I measured one of my last rods 2.5mm, 2.64mm, 2.73mm and 2.82mm , that's one rod .....will prob measure these on a clean out, just to see.

I imagine it's quite difficult to make them all uniform. With anything that is essentially a bunch of wires twisted together there is going to be some variation.
Now that mine are working well I'm Just going to make sure I always put them back in the same holes lol

Suppose...... looks like to me 2.50mm is what they aim for

Sussed out the wicking a few weeks ago....now all the reviews that I've seen have the rods poking up into the deck juice well thingy at random different heights.....so that was what I was doing.
Fk no...no...no...no.....mines are set flush, so the juice pools into the well.....and all is now well n has been for weeks....fkin reviews
If you are struggling to wick this thing set the rods flush in the juice well.
