Default Nitrous solinoid leaking please help

I am finishing up my nitrous install and when I start putting preasure to the system and the purge valve leaks slowly. Do I need to have full preasure to the solinoid to get it to seal or is it just faulty. I didnt have a full bottle I was just testing for leaks (200-300psi). I have disassembled it twice to make sure its clean and it's still the same. It is a Nitrous Express solinoid if that makes a difference, and the rest of the system seems to be working fine.

dont hold me to this but alot of the nitrous soleniods are parkers or skinners or others, but anyway its the same type used in alot of air ride setups and i know if the tank pressure(in air ride) drops down below a certain pressure the valves will slowly open and the vehicle will go down. apparently the pressure is what keeps them pushed shut until the coil in it is energized and pulls it open. when my nitrous pressure gets low after a day or two its all just gone. idunno maybe i need to keep the bottle shut.
