Just working out whether I want to run nitrous or not, but don't know all the logistics. The question still remains, what do you do with your bottle on hot days???

Just leave it alone. It will have to be a million degrees outside for a bottle to pop. You will be fine in West WA

We always recommend taking the bottle out of the car when not in use. Though being in WA it probably wont hurt anything, just keep an eye on bottle pressure.

Id be happy to help you out with a kit with a forum discount.
Just send me a pm

I used to run Nitrous on my old Honda CBX (1047cc 6 cylinder Superbike) was great fun!

If this helps. My wife is on oxygen and we leave spare oxy bottles in all our cars year round hot or cold..no effect... Even in the winter weather in eastern WA.

The bottle has been behind the seat in my 64 for 10 years with no ill effects....and I live in Arizona! Yes it's full, just make sure the bottle blowout tube exhausts outside the car.
