The prob. = I get the bottle filled on Wens. its down to ~ 650psi on Fri. I didn't check the pressure when I first got it filled. Does anyone else have this prob.? I think it might be leaking at the head/valve on the bottle.
Does anyone have a torque spec on valve to bottle?
Do ya'll think I need a new seal on the bottle?
Thanks in advance.
PS- I have a bottle heater but its not hooked up yet. Would that make a difference?
PSS- I got a NX system.

Well is it cold where your at?? just because the PSI is down doesnt mean its empty...
Weigh the bottle .. should be around the 25lb +/- mark.. if its been filledd and you havent used any since then...
Yes.. use the bottle heater.. as you want to be @ 950psi +/- or in the green for Nitrous Express ...
Good luck
