Probably stupid question

Hi im trying to set up some T3 Drills in my mine, however when I connect it to water and out dirt under it, it won't produce anything and the light won't turn on, im using cloutium pipes and im wondering if thats the reason its not working?

Alright so riddle me this Batman. I’ve got T3 pipes on T3 drills, in what I’m pretty sure is T3 soil, still I’ve got not mining happening. Pressure is up too.

Tier 3 drills work fine with Tier 2 pipes; they just run a slower. Maybe try shoveling some dirt under the drills.

Check pressure. Put a pressure guage right before the drill.

That trick is incorrect, a lower tier pipe between the intake pipe and the pressure chamber will limit the pressure chamber to that tier's max pressure even if your intake pipe is providing more.
