see my other post aboe nitrous issues fixed or something like that. I had 2 bottles filled at the same time my bottle did the same thing as alwasy hit an then felt like it wasnt doing anything anymore. Swapped out to my friends bottle and it his and kept on hitting down the track
I ended up going to a place I didnt like too much, and had them fill it, and the **** worked ******* awsome..
But I did not like the attitude of the guys over there so I did not go back.
Kept going where I had been told to go, but now I am finding out that the place I go to is notorious for bad fills..
So now its time to look for new filling station.
I would say check out the fill....
Right now I have 8lbs of air... and I am pissed off about it...
If the bottle was cheap enough I would go throw the **** thru the front window of the place.
but then I would out of a bottle.

bad fills... 1st time I had a bad fill I was like, no way is there something wrong with my bottle.. I checked the siphon tube and it was in a great location. I then checked the bottle and with the valve open, I shot tons of air out.

bad fill 3x from 2x places, and then bad fill on two bottles filled at the right after each other. 5 of my friends were all running spray from the same place that day at the track. Oh and before you say empty mother bottle , my friends mach filled a bottle then my bottle was filled then the bottle i borrowed was filled, that day. Put the bottle in another car same issue, swap the bottle to a different one no issues.
I actually have been thru 3 places now, with bad fills... Since I have had nitrous I think I have gotten 1 good fill.
I recently have had 2 bottles filled, both bad. same place, same day.
The way I see it is if they are robbing you on nitrous, they will rob you the same way each time, so the fills will be the same shitty fills..
I talked with a few guys about my fills, and from what they told me about the place i went, and what they seen, well that was my exact issue..
So you are saying you were having an issue in your car, then you put your bottle to another car and there were no issues?
or there were the same issues with your bottle in another car?

if you still have nitrous/air in the bottle right now...
empty it and record it.... That is what I am doing tonight, and calling the manager and bitching...
It will not get anything done except the fact that I will be satisfied yelling at them explaining that I am posting everyone that they SUCK.
it sounds like you have a shitty place where you are getting your bottle filled at... IMO....

Before you go bash someone I would check your system out. If your dip tube is bent wrong all you get is an air shot. have you opened your bottle and rotated it until you get liquid? that might help if you dont want to remove the valve from your bottle...

well I have this to add... Did you wonder if you were getting screwed on the fill to begin with?
I have recently had issues with my bottle also, trying to figure out why it was not hitting, then after I felt the nitrous hit, it dropped off really quick... I have been like WTF.
So purging my line, and making a run at the track, we check right away, and my line was full of air... So we purge again, hit the track, nothing... check again and all air.
I had bottle at 1200PSI, 1100PSI, 1000PSI, 950PSI, 900PSI...
all nothing... all air....
opened up completely and just sat there spraying with car off.... All air...
did not matter my bottle pressure....
So I have now gotten 2 bad fills... The fills consisted of AIR..... that is the only thing I can think of for the fact on a full bottle I cant get a 50 shot out.. LOL

did you watch them fill the bottle? because air does not weight anything. if the bottle weighed more, you got nitrous. not that i haven't seen bad batches and all that.

I know air does not weigh anything, but when a shop has it set up to rob you, then they do. It wont matter if you watch them or not...
**** when I worked in a certain type of shop, and we did some misc. bad ****, I could rob you with you standing there...
And no I did not watch them fill the tank. They take to back of the shop.
But I am dam sure that when my bottle weighs more.... And I empty it and see nothing come out but air.. Well the air they use must be different, since it weighed something.
I have the video of emptying my bottle..
And as for my OPINION>....
I Did not say this was for sure what was wrong with you setup...
As said above... This is what I have seen on my **** lateley, and heard of the same issue from alot of other guys who have recently sent me Pm's about their same problems.
So with 4 guys with the same sounding problem... THAT IS WHERE I WAS coming at...
So yes my shitty opinion, you did not like, but you guys have not figured out ****, so I was giving opinion....
AGAIN.... this is IN MY OPINION.....
you dont have to take this as being your problem.
As for my opinion being shitty... Well that is like ********, we all have them and if you dont like my opinion, dont reply or take it.......
everyone knows everyone for 10 years and has never had any problems....
I was giving my opinion, and if you were not wanting to talk with me, dont respond, and I will stop giving opinions of mine....
thx.

ok quickblade. we FIGURED out his problem. it IS the BOTTLE, not the NITROUS. his bottle filled the same place as mine at the same time went a 12.20 @110 or something. THEN with my bottle in his car he went 11.7@119. its obviously not the fill, its the bottle.

So when you guys are saying its the bottle are you referring to the bottle knut, valve, or tube?
