I have had this happen twice.I filled the botlle and hit it once or twice for a short amount of time.The 2 gauges i have say there is still about 750 or better psi in the tank.I shut the valve and park the car.a couple of days later the tank is empty. the next time it sat for 3 or 4 weeks and i would check it every few days and the pressure was good.Then one day I go out and the tank is empty again.Where is this leaking??Oh,its is a NOS 15 pd bottle with the hi flo valve.

Thanks

was the bottle new when you bought it? are you sure you are shutting the valve all the way? Do you have a remote bottle opener?

Crank the bottle valve tight otherwise it'll leak. Check the burst disk and make sure that's all tight. The whole valve assembly threads into the bottle...It's unlikely, but could be leaking there.

You can try putting some dish soap and water in a spray bottle and spray all of the fittings for the nitrous and see if you find any bubbles anywhere.

check the gauge where it threads into the bottle. This is on the psi side of the valve and will leak even if the valve is shut tightly. Also the gauge itself could leak.Check everything with soapy water.

i thought i was the only one that had a bottle leak. i also had the 15lb nos bottle. mine leaked from the brass hex valve. i ended up getting a new kit so i never fixed it.

bottle was new,there is no gauge on it and I have replaced the burst disk.Also no bottle opener installed and I twist it TIGHT when I shut it.The bitch is it doesnt leak all the time,just sometimes.
