Hello,
Are you sure the end tip of the PLOT column ends up (and 2 mm withdrawn) inside the FID Jet?
Any problems when igniting the FID?
FID Jet could be contaminated from PLOT stationary phase particles ..

The Pfeiffer turbopump on my 5977C MSD will not start after shutdown; it does not exceed 5%. When I boot the MSD, the green LED on the pump controller is solid. Then when the turbo fails to reach 80%, the LED starts blinking and the MSD panel returns…
If your area is relatively stable but your amount/result is low, you have to have either altered your calibration values, failed to clear a previous calibration, or omitted a dilution factor. Are all results lower by the same factor or is it variable…
