i still have some nitrous left in it but it doesnt hold pressure because it is low. is that nitruos still good? or should i just empty it out before i fill it?

im not too sure but i think if its too low to tell u the pressure then if u went to get it filoled they would probably just fill it without dumping the old nitrous by the way is that kit good, do u like it.....wat other mods u got that ur 13.77

If there isn't ny pressure or the pressure is low, that's due to either no nitrous left (impossible) or it needs to be heated up! You can have 1oz. of nitrous in your tank and it hould show 950lbs when properly heated! You will never remove all the nitrous out while using any shot! You would have to remover the bottle from the car and open up the nozzl;e for free flow! When I had mine, I would just get the nitrous around 2lbs or so and have it filled. The fill station shoul have scales to measure how much they put in. They don't charge you a set amount! Also, in order to drain your bottle super low, you have to have the bottle positioned properly and have the siphon tube pointed down as well, because nitrous is a liquid in the bottle and sinks to the lowest point.

No need to totally empty the bottle. They charge you per pound, so a totally empty bottle will cost you $45 to fill around here (4.50/lb), however, one with 2 lbs left in it will only cost you $36.

It'll be fine man. Emptying it would be wasteful.
