    i am having the same trouble.....plenty of bulbbles in the mason jar filled with distilled water and one measured teaspoon of baking soda
    i am going to check the plastic lid for leaks, but not sure yet how to do it....if there are leaks, the gas may never get to the hose, which i have in water to see the out put

    The easiest way is to put some water in a glass or something see through, then dip the hose (coming from the cell) in the water so the end of the hose is about 1/2" in the water, then see if it bubbles.

    If you're using water4gas which you shouldn't it will only bubble if you put liquid gasket around the threads and plumbers goop on every hole you drilled, the best way to see where it's coming from is just spray windex on the lid and look for the bubbles.

    Water4gas

    You say not to use water for gas....do you mean do not use the mason jars (wet) as opposed to the dry (plates with water running inside them through holes??
