open the valve on the bottle wehn your in the car and going somewhere you want to use it possibly... but if you leave it open it WILL leak out over time... i lost a whole bottle once....

when NOT in the car close the bottle tight.

expensive way to lose 30 dollars but lesson learned

yes.... for one you lose pressure everytime you open the bottle, for seconds it's not smart because the selinoid may burst or somthing stupid like that. But mainly because you lose pressure.

Or do it like me and put it in your back seat. Which actually helped me alot because i opened my bottle one time and it was leaking. I burnt my hand really bad from the nitrous sparying on my hand, but i didn't waste it.
