Default nitrous lines leakproof?

im just wondering i dont think any of my fittings leak all the non -an and -an got teflon paste i can open my bottles and my gauge will read whatever, then i close them at the end of the night and the next day, say 24 hours later, theres no pressure in the line....does it leak through the an line or what? does anyone leave their bottles open all the time?

don't leave the bottle open, i've heard the pressure on your solenoids isn't good for them (for long periods of time).

get some soapy water and put it in a spray bottle. open the n20 bottle and spray down every single place it could leak- i'd bet you find a leak or 2. i found a few in my system when i did this.

Every time I've left my bottle open overnight I've wasted a ton of nitrous by the morning.. At close to $10/lb over here that hurts!
