Default Tank Pressure Time ???

When you open the nitrous valve and pressurize the line, then CLOSE the valve with pressure at around 800.
How long should that line stay pressurized before going to almost zero? This is just sitting in the line, not purging, playing or anything.
In the event that the line bleeds down on it's own, I ASSume there is a leak somewhere.

Thanks
Bob

Well if there is no leak, that should stay in the line quite a while.
I had mine full for like 1 week sitting in the garage, went to change connector on solenoid and it went psssstttttt.... and nitrous all over my glove. LOL

Went and checked the bottle and the bottle was closed. So the juice was in the line from when I had come home and put in the garage.

So it should stay for a while.. if it is gone within 10 minutes just to say, then you must have a leak...
I dont know of any solenoids that will allow pressure to escape, would defeat the purpose.
