The better question is do you purge the fuel into the air or motor? If in the air i want to see the vid...... other wise....

If you want to purge the fuel its called a "bang button" and you purge the entire system( fuel and nitrous) threw the motor while its in neutral. the big nitrus carb guys love it. Not to many efi guys doin it. I wouldn't advise it for noobs....

guys say its the best way to clear the engine and plugs off.



FYI I was joking on the fuel into the air please don't do this....

You can actually purge the fuel back to the cell on an un-pressurized port. Same concept as with a nitrous purge.

I wanna see a fuel purge onto the exhaust manifolds

Honestly, good that you asked before you become a internet car forum legend. Not a good one at that either.
