Still having problems with yellow.

You can always clean the pads with some solvent cleaning fluid, and dry between two towels.

Just replace the pads and get back to printing.

Are you using Lava Inks ?

No, I am using Mutoh inks. But I think Flame used the lava inks in it before I bought it. Not sure what was replaced after the ink was put in.. I think the capping station, dampers and the pump only. I think the lines were all the same from when he had lava ink in them.

Could it still be in the lines and contaminating stuff?

Ok fellas. I just changed the pads on the capping station to some nice ones.
I have a full set of cleaning cartridges. should I run a complete cleaning before I do anything, or will it not make a difference?

The head contamination is mostly from not using it enough to clear the area around the separate colors of other colors in the cleaning station.

A printer that is under used is going to give you a lot of problems.

I spoke to victor from cmykparts and he sugested I put all new full in cartridges in. So I am waiting for the two light colors that are on order.
SO once I start will all equal ink he thinks the problem with the yellow and lt cyan will be resolved.
