Is my bottle and noids to old to use?
Is my bottle and noids to old to use? I bought my nos dry kit brand new back in 2002 and have not used it since 2004. Do you think my bottle and noids are still good? I did the test for the noids and they clicked like normal. I just wonder if I should have them rebuilt to be sure. I also read on here that if bottles are over 5 years old, they need to be replaced. Is that a true statement? I don't see how a bottle could go bad. I have my kids in the car every day but NEVER open the bottle with them in there. I just want to be a safe as possible with everything being this old. I do have the blowdown tube on the bottle that exits the bottom of the car.
Holly ****. My bottle is 10 years old. I looked at mine at it reads 09 00. It has a small symbol in between the numbers. Where can I get it re-certified?
I would also like to know where to get re-certified, my bottle is old.
Aren't the main thing that gets old in solenoids the plunger? I bought a dynotune solenoid plunger replacement kit, I hope thats enough to get my solenoids good again.

If you are in a hurry or a $$$ bind just hook everything up off of the car and see if there are any leaks, make sure everything works properly, etc....
If you have time I'd get one of the sponsors to check out the noids and the bottle.

yeah the rebuild kits are 33 bucks each and 10 to ship them. I can rebuild them myself. It looks very simple. I just need a place to get my bottle certified. Do you know if they take it apart and inspect ir or just put a few pounds in and check for leaks?

Well at one time, it would kinda drag if you will when opening and closing. I would turn the **** to open it and it would hang a little and catch at the same spot when closing it. This is with the bottle empty btw. I just went to test it about a year ago and it was doing that. It has since stopped and opens and closes just fine now. I just want to cover all my bases. Do they make rebuild kits for these just in case? I dropped off the bottle this morning and they don't test the valve.
If the bottle was droped or knocked over at one time it may have slightly bent the valve stem causing it to drag when it opened and closed. I would deffintly hav ethe bottle re certified for safety reasons. If you are unsure of things feel free to send me the bottle and solenoids and I will check it out for you. I can also have a local company Hydrotest the bottle and re certify it for you. Shoot me a pm if you need the help.
