Default NITROUS IN THE LINE!

Does everyone purge the line out after using? I was told it wasn't good for the solenoid to have that much pressure for long.
Percentage wise, how much do you waste when draining the line?

not everyone has a purge, and you dont have to do it..as far as percentage of waste it would all depend on how long you purged for

I always purge b4 I spray, and after I close the bottle. The waste is negligible, as far as I can tell

by the next morning it's gone anyways, you can do either one after the bottle is shut. or not bother.

i just close the bottle and squirt on the way home...it'll lose everything quick

I don't have a purge kit. I just get on the throttle for a few seconds before I enter the lanes to "purge" the system. Likewise I do the samething when leaving the track.

I always purge the line when I'm done. It's not good to leave that pressure on the plunger. Not sure how the Zex kit works but I would never close my bottle and spray it to empty the line. When the bottle pressure drops the car runs rich.
