Default N02 purge?

If you have N02 in your system, can you always see the purge? I had heated my bottle to 800 lbs, (from 650) hit the purge and saw none come out. I could hear it but not see it.

Is this just compressed and heated air?

Thanks

Are yousure that you had nitrous in your tank? Just because you have pressure does not mean you have no2 in the tank. The only way to be sure is to remove your tank and weigh it. There should be an empty weight marked on the tank.

Jer,

There was nitrous in the tank. Filled it a week ago. Guess I'll have to weigh it. Not a problem I guess.

Thanks.

Well if you had a tank full of N02 in your car I garantee that it would not help your cars performance as N02 is Nitric Oxide a common bodybuilding supplement. I think you mean N20 in which case you should be able to see it if you have some in the tank during the purge
