Default Nitrous Purge issue...

So ill keep this short.. but yesterday i went to run, and when I went to do the purge it blew out pressure and the line was cold after it sprayed. But there was no white cloud coming out, almost as if it was just spraying compressed air. there are no leaks in the system and the bottle was just filled. So im not sure why it is doing that... my only thought was maybe the bottle wasnt filled all the way and it really is empty...would the fact that it was 100+ degrees yesterday have anything to do with it?

I think its just the heat having boiling a lot more the juice in the line then you're used to. You probably just needed to purge longer to flush all the gaseous nitrous and get to fresh liquid. Was it sitting in the line long after you opened the bottle before you purged?

yeah the bottle was open, and i purged for a good 5-10 seconds, i looked for leaks and found none, and i felt the line afterwards and it was frosty and cold, and the purge worked the day before juts fine, then again it also wasnt so hot out

I would weigh the bottle to check how full it is just in case its leaked down near empty. If its under half full you'll need to purge a lot longer to get the liquid flowing
