I just filled up my bottle this weekend and ready to kick some ass. I spray about like 4 or 5 times on second and third gear than like an hour later i try to spray again, the solenoid stop working and it stayed open and all my nitrous go bye bye.

The damn SOlenoid was brand spanking new and is a Pro-shot

How the hell it broke so fast

Ouch!
Did you damage the motor by spraying in N20 continuously until the bottle went empty?

I didn't damage the motor cause i shut my car off and turn my bottle off right away but by the time i turn my bottle off, it was just nothing but air

Are you sure you don't just have a leak in the line?? Was the car squeezing when you shut it off??

You should always use a filter right before your solenoid. Dirt and crap from the nitrous fill can lodge in your solenoid and make it stick open.

dude that sucsk i have a NOS noid take a shit too, my stayed also open i think i had the same kind you have, and what sucks is NOS doesn't coevr that shit. they basically run you around in circles till you go away. get a NX noid and replace it with that all the fittings should be the same, and they carry a life time warrenty/
