They came with my kegs from Kegco but I think they're limiting the beer's CO2 intake. I'm going to swap them out for traditional ones today to see if they make a difference.
I have been plagued by poor carbonation and I have tried everything else.

I mean you could remove the dip tube but then you are opening up the beer to oxygen and potential contamination. Blasting gas through the liquid post can help clear clogs without opening up the keg. You can check for leaks by spraying the posts and the lid with either starsan or just soapy water.
Yeah, I was worried about contamination, too. I'll give your method a try. Thanks for all the advice!
