  • It appears that valve 2 is switching, as there is a baseline spike around 1.5 min in both chromatograms.  I presume this is valve 2 turning back off.  I would measure the actual column flow at the TCD.  Turn off the filament and reference flow to do this.  You didn't list any parameters, but 1/8" packed column flow is typically 20-30 mL/min.  Your flow may be set incorrectly or there may be a large leak somewhere.
