I am sure it has to do with the weather, but when I used to purge I was able to see the white cloud. Now, when I purge I can only hear it and not see anything (its mounted in front of my windshield). My purge lines/vents do get frost on them, so I know its working.
why is this . . .

Are you out of Nitrous?

MeanWS6

no it is a full bottle.
When I pulled the bottle and opened it I saw the white spray
The purge vents are cold to the touch, and if I purge long enough then the lines get "frost" on them. I just cant visibly see it now.
Does it have anything to do with the outside temps once it hits the air?

It depends sometimes. I've had a few occasions where I couldn't see the plume, but I saw the purge line go icy real quick and I definitely heard it purge. It was definitely not as noticiable on a very hot sunny day compared to at night.

whoa!!! i was about to post the same ?. i was kinda figuring that it was the really hot weather here in OK. that and the fact that i'm purging out of the front of the "nostrils" and the N2O has to travel through alot of heat-soaked line to exit.

One thing I have found lately is sometimes the draw tube in the bottle is not bent or positioned correctly. Maybe even from the UPS truck. If your car still runs right on nitrous pulls then this is not the problem. If your car drops off when the bottle is 1/2 empty and purge becomes clear, then definetly check the draw tube.

The more humid the day the whiter the plume will be. If its real hot, sunny and dry day you will not see as much white as a humid dark day or night. It all visual. Also another thing can be the filter in the solenoid is getting full of trash. Does the system feel the same when you hit it?
One thing I found to created a larger looking plume is to use a bigger vent tube and flare the end.

I know his thread is kind of old but I had the same problem, couldnt see the purge for ****. I redid my purge with a bigger line and guess what, I now get a big white plume everytime. My damn purge lines must have been too small. I swear everytime I purge now its a big white plume and it sounds better too, not restricted sounding like it was before.

I've noticed the same thing - I think it's the warmer weather and lack of humidity in the air.

On a foggy morning a while back I purged it and I had never seen a purge so big - at least 20' I freaked out wooohoooo !!

I tried it the other day in a sunny/hot parking lot and couldn't see anything past 1" out of the purge. Bummer. Purge tubing still frosted up, so I know it's working.

Waiting for the next foggy morning to confirm my humidity theory.
