    Will an 18g make shiz of the rubber stoper on a vial

    I have some 18g's I was planning on using to draw with?

    Oh and another thing I've heard it's a good idea to leave a small bit of air in the end of the syringe (not for injecting) but for allowing you to push out the last drop left in the needle that would be lost otherwise. hope you understand what I mean

    i forgot to mention that i insert it into a new spot on the rubber stopper everytime and that seems to do the trick but on the last few draws i dont push any air into the vile cus ive had gear piss out the holes cus like i said the stopper gets chewed up a bit....im not shure if its the best practice but it has worked for me....

    shure when you draw from a multi-dose vial most draw air into the needle and then inject the air into the vile to cause back-pressure so the pin actually will draw the dose by itself...some peeps leave a little of that air in the syringe so it sits behind the gear in the barrel of the pin...when you inject that air pushes all the gear out of the needle cus if you dont you loose a bit of gear in the pin....i say this theoreticly as i havent tryed it myself i just learned about it a few weeks back....

    If for instance you want to draw out 1ml, put 1ml of air in your syringe, put the 18 in the vial, then insert the air and withdraw your juice. And move the syringe around from time to time in the stopper as mentioned and you'll be fine.
