Default filling ur mad tight nawz bottle y0!

my bottle weighs 17 lbs... bottle label says "empty weight of bottle - 14lbs" So i have 3lbs of nitrous in the tank left... even with the bottle heater, 3lb of nitrous just feels absolutely weak, i don't know why.

when you guys fill ur nawwwz, do you empty the bottle first then fill it with a full 10lbs, or just fill it on top of what you already have in ur tank?

yea when your bottle is low it will feel weak. i had a zex dry without a bottle heater or anything. i always emptied the bottle before i got it filled, and if i didnt the shop always would.

lol, i wont be doing the filling, the shop does. and they don't fill the bottle iwht 10lbs of nitrous, they look on the specs of the bottle and fill it with nitrous till it reaches the "full" weight.

That's why the kits come with those brackets...otherwise every time you opened your trunk your bottle would try to float away.
