Default N2O solenoid.. maintenance????

So I have a dynotune dry system... I have run about
8 10lb bottles thru the system since getting it new... Do I need to do any maintenance to the solenoid???

What is the average amount of time until I should re-do my solenoid?

NO, im sure they are fine. I dont know the regular rebuild period. I have seen that in an article once but i dont remember the frequency.
Full season or two maybe?

I didnt see anything that is a definite when to rebuild.. I just wasnt sure... I was thinking of doing it to be safe for coming race season... But I dont feel that I have run that much N2O thru the system..

There realy is no set in stone time frame to go off of. IF you are using a progressive controller you need to check the noids more often, but if your not using a progressive then you wont have to check them as often. Periodically from time to time I would check the noids by clicking them and making sure that you hear a good solid click.

Noids ( non progressive ) - Once a year
Noids w/ Progressive - Once to twice a year

I was curious myself about this matter, as I have heard that progressive controllers are hard on the noids. Thanks for the info Chris.
