Default How long does the fuel in a standalone last...?
I am thinking about getting a standalone fuel cell for my nitrous. If I get a 1 gallon standalone and say I spray a 200 shot how many runs will that 1 gallon of fuel last for?

A lot. I would only go through about 2-3 gallons of fuel a summer. That was with a 200 shot and probably 10-12 bottles of nitrous. I'd get three 10 sec 1/4 mile passes out of each bottle before pressure fell off.

Awesome thank you. 10lb bottle I assume?

I use less than a half gal on 3-4 bottles on a 250 shot.

do you guys run the standalone in the engine bay? if so, do you drain it dry when not using it at the track?
