next the yellow cart i removed the cover which is over the air drain over the spoonge (only the plastic paper cover) is it important to cover it again or no need?

It's almost impossible to get the pigment black ink sponges as white as the dye ink sponges. Just keep washing until no more black ink comes out.

You should leave the tape on the top of the cartridge that covers the serpentine air path because it is important to allow the cartridge to breathe as ambient air pressure fluctutes during the day without exchanging humid air inside the cartridge with dryer air outside the cartridge. Just put a piece of tape back on the one you removed. You should also make sure you don't have any water left in the air path. Blow into it while it is upside down to remove as much water as possible.

Here is a post with links to videos I made showing the German refill method.
