[Frustrated]

I've rarely encountered "random fluke events."  Generally odd events fall into two categories: Either I wasn't paying attention and did something wrong, or its a reproduceable bug.

That sounds like @Curry MAMA's example a few posts up, where the pipes behind the green and orange blocks are connected behind the filter.  I haven't messed with liquid filters enough to know if some of these other edge cases might be a factor:

• When there is power loss, does fluid still travel through the green pipe,
• If the 'orange' pipe is completely full, does filtered fluid continue down the green pipe.
• Is the filter 'glitchy' during power up? I.e. if it loses power and then power comes back, does the filter let things slip through?

Just double-check that they're either empty or you know what is in them before you deconstruct.   I've made a few messes on accident by not paying attention.

They happen regularly with me.  I don't know why.  In terms of checking that pipes are empty, always.
