Default Just picked up an NOS Opener

I didn't read too much about these, but I just did a search...

I think I may have just screwed myself...

Got it for $87... has anyone had success with these?

It works just fine.....Use it. Its just not as nice as the ones that mechanically rotate the valve handle but for that price you did ok....

It will work but watch it.They are bad about sticking half way shut when you thinlk it is open.Restricts flow.
The ones like Nitrous Express and Dyno tunes are the way to go if possible.

My suggestion is put it back down. As dave said it tends to stick half way. If you want another one Ill sell the one out of my car for 50$. Only used about 4 months

I have used 2 of these and both have stuck. I now just use my hand. Works 100% of the time and has a lifetime warranty.

Do appologize. If I had to get an opener, it would be a NX. My problems have been from the NOS brand.
