Well I guess when you are running 10's on the motor you wouldnt need to spray it that much. lol. Maybe I have to spray mine so often because its stock n slow.

I would be more interested in how old the solenoids are, and how long they have been on the vehicle, rather than how many times it has been used. Most of your solenoids are going to have rubber plungers, and will swell from fuel vapors from the engine over time.

i had an extra 15lb bottle and a remote bottle opener that i never used.
sold the bottle and still have the NOS opener (part no. 16058). couldn't say they were never used since i picked them up used though.

if you like to hoard stuff, you're going to end up with little or no use on some things.

only reason i could think of someone selling a nitrous kit with one bottle through it is if they had a problem that couldn't be resolved. i also went through several bottles in the first week.

I was gonna say they could be meaning "Mother Bottle" that nitrous refills come from. What does that thing weigh? Like 100lbs at least????

I've been through one bottle too.... One gigantic 200lb bottle....
