Nitrous Oxide - purge smoke effect question

i have a tnt f1 kit installed on my camaro this past weekend. why cant i get the cloud effect when i purge with my badass nitrous express purge kit. ITs loud and i hear it but no cloud/smoke effect. does anyone know why this is or what i can do???

You might have air, no n20...maybe just a bad weather day for n20 clouds...humidity is a factor etc.

:jest:

well what is good weather for n2o clouds. i live in san antonio/houston where it is pretty humid

i want some n2o clouds.....:confused:

Some seem more "foggy" than others dont they. Maybe has to do with the tubing being larger in diameter.

:jest:I drove through a nitrous cloud once - it made me laugh!

well what kind of tube should i use for the purge. right now i am using some copper wire stuff the diameter of the hole is pretty small but i hear it comin out alot. But no cloud at all completely clear and seethrough

.

Sounds like air to me also.

i dont see how it would jsut be air though. Are you saying the place that sold me the nitrous sold me just oxygen instead of n2o? after they filled it up the bottle was freezing cold ...

NXRicky :secret2: has a great meterological explanation. :angel:

i'm pretty sure the cloud that you are seeing with a purge is the liquid nitrous turning into gas as soon as it hits atmospheric pressure. make sure your bottle is positioned right with the siphon tube facing down so it picks up liquid n2o

what is your bottle pressure?

your tube is fine. (look in the middle of my pic....same little copper tubing)

Yes, I realize I look a little scary in this pic. Apparently I didn't lean over enough for the pic and this is really the only one I have.

To start with is your bottle full.? When was the last time you put the giggle juice in the tank?take your bottle out of the car and weigh it. make sure you have some mojo in there.

The white cloud you see when purging is nothing more then the water vapor in the air freezing. It is not liquid nitrous. The more humid the day to more dense the cloud will appear. Also the higher or longer the cloud will be.
now if you are hear a loud air sound then the purge noid is working, make sure there is no kinks in your purge line.

And you thought I was being a wise guy. :angel:

well i put 5lbs in the 10lb tank the day after i got it installed and it wouldnt do any clouds. i live where it is really humid . Another thing is my bottle is flat the nozzle is not up from the bottom end. and my pressure is right around 1k to 1150. any other suggetions

i am hoping it is because the bottle isnt at 45 degrees. I will test it out today and let you know. THere should be some cloud effect though on all purges even if some are smaller than others is that correct

may be your problem...siphon tube has to be in liquid at base...

:hijack: But, we'll just call it a bump. lol

I was waiting for someone to say that. I had just stripped the car to install the cage. That damn carpet is heavy too. Thanks, that is my boy....Name is Buster. The dog goes non-stop all day long. If I had that amount of energy I'd weigh 25 lbs less.

OK, back on subject. Nitrous clouds are cool. Oh, and nitrous is cheating in case you didn't know. :D

i've had similar problem, and the first run turn to shit, [too rich], my hits seem to be strong and afr steady when i get a nice true white plume. some stations may pump air in especially if they close to empty , the weight stops increasing.
