Nitrous Problems! Hey guys my nitrous has been fine for the past week but all of a sudden when im going it just shorts out and then kicks back on and off repeatedly- i went through and recrimped all connections and covered all in electrical tape- but there is a small leak in the nitrous line between the purge and solenoid- could this cause something? ANY ideas?

ON and off while driving or just testing with your pushing the wot switch. The reason I ask, if your seat is too far back when you launch it could lift off the pedal and you would not know it.
If while testing the relay sounds like it has a bad ground.

Mine pulsed like that one time. My wot switch was too sensitive and was clicking on and off. I adjusted it to come on sooner or easier and it fixed the problem. Might help to check it.

mine comes on pretty easily (WOT switch)- im gonna put my money on that it is the leak in the purge fitting causing my problem along w/ low bottle pressure- the leak is noticable w/ hood down and engine running so im prolly loosing 100 to 200psi when its leaking which is bad to say the least.... so im gonna fix that saturday along w/ put on the bottle heater i hope!
well i got low bottle pressure and a small leak and alot of people are saying that low psi causes surging- and i will move the seat up farther- also the zex bottle mounts i think are a little low im gonna put a mount on the bottom of the front one to set it up a little higher- also im gonna replace the leaky fitting and get the bottle warmer and blanket on there and run 1000psi and see what happens then-

If it's not a leak...It still "sounds" electrical by your description. There really arn't that many places that you need to check. I really suggest that anyone who messes with electrical use a multi meter to check voltages. Maybe draw out a schematic of exactly what you have scan and upload it somewhere to be seen...it will benefit you and us to help you troubleshoot your system.

heres the deal-
i ran the truck this morning on a 75 shot and it worked good the first two times then it started cutting out again- so i go home check all the grounds and recrimp everything and put them back- then tonight i try to spray and it wont spray at all- i had the switch turned on half a bottle of nitrous and 890psi- so do yall think its the msd window switch f'n up on me?
