3. Can i use the gauge in the pic (came off a O2 bottle)(yes ive read that the bottle has to be empty to install it)
4. is a purge and bottle heater required (ive read not to use a torch, are there other option beside the blanket)

You should be able to still use the NO2, Weigh the bottle to see how much is in there. I don't think a purge is necessary but a bottle heater is advised to keep the bottle pressure at 100 PSI. The bottle doesn't need to be empty to install it or at least mine doesnt. Mine is installed after the bottle connects to the main line.

Yep 3 year old nitrous is fine. When I bought my car it came with a nitrous kit installed with a full bottle. Hadn't been sprayed in 5 years he said. It was fine when I decided to use it
