Bottle heater question
If I'm suppose to heat the bottle between runs until the pressure is correct, my ignition switch must be on. How does that work? Between runs, I can't keep the car running or drain the battery for the 15 minutes required to heat up the bottle. Are y'all connecting the heater differently than me? or what?

Re: Bottle heater question (jpvette)
I can get the bottle up to pressure on the way to the track and it won't fall off that far if it's full. I do have a basic heater without temp. control and it's wired straight from the battery so I can get the pressure to 1200 and let it fall a bit without having to deal with it. If it does fall too far I can turn the heater back on.

Re: Bottle heater question (jpvette)
I wired mine directly to the battery, by-passing the ignition switch. So the heater will still work with the motor turned off.
Just don't forget to turn off the heater when you're done.
