Paul,
All "bubble tubes" do that to some degree. especially as they heat up. If one or more seems to do it more often, or after it's hot, try CAREFULLY, at your own risk, and when it's cold, "Re-seating it" in the heater--Caution--- You CAN burn yourself, and can EASILY brake the glass tube !!! Ron Rich
