Looking for nitrous bottle valve with a built in pressure cap Hi guys,
I'm looking for the nitrous bottle valve for my NX bottle that has a built in pressure cap, in addition to the line out (control by the open/close valve) and blow-off valve.
Currently, on my NX nitrous bottle, it only has a line out and blow-off valve. My nitrous pressure gauge and heater transducer are hooked into the line out, so they can read the nitrous pressure ONLY when the valve is open.
I would like to be able to read the bottle pressure even with the valve closed. And because of safety reasons, I do not feel comfortable modifying the blow-off valve to accept a manifold for the gauage/transducer.
Thanks

Re: Looking for nitrous bottle valve with a built in pressure cap NX makes a silver fitting that has a 2 port feed thru 1/8 npt with a pop off valve that fits on the end. It is expensive around 40.00

This will turn on and off automatically.
And it's nice to always know the bottle pressure. But I definitely do not want to be running around with the valve open. It puts too much stress on your solenoid.
