Default Nitrous Leak!

Well after I ran once at the track on friday I heard a ticking sound as I was halfway down the track. The sound was coming from the NCU. I popped the hood and I can hear a leak coming from one of the ports off the NCU. Should I take it back to the shop that installed it, or could I fix the problem myself.

I would purge the system completely, then check all connections. Man, your shop really screwed you on the install. I would demand my money back.

I did purge it however I couldn't see anything, I can just barely hear a leak. I closed the bottle and purged the rest out and the leak stopped, so I know its the nitrous, just a matter of finding the leak. I know, that shop sucks.

i wouldnt say they screwed him on the install man, that's just mean assumptions. Even if an install goes perfectly, something can always go wrong.

Wanna bet? Read his early posts about his Nitrous install. Even he agrees, his shop needs a good *** kicking. Use the search function, you will see.

LOL, its cool man. I mean is hockey thinks I am off base, I'm open to that. I'm kinda wired tonight. LOL. But early on, he had a lot of problems with his shop installing his Zex.
