Re: MIS refill mystery

2003-01-15 by Steven Karafyllakis <stevek@evcom.net>

Stephen,

Try starting form scratch again, do the vacuum draw as best you can, 
and then take the chip of and microwave it. I give each side and 
both ends a 3-4 second burst, and then draw out each chamber again 
once or twice with the syringe. They always fill properly after 
that. Don't let it get more than a little warm to the touch though, 
you don't want that sponge melting!.
