I am having an issue with one of the four 15lb nitrous bottles that I have. I can get 3 passes out of each bottle except for 1 that falls off during the second pass. These are all new bottles that were purchased at the begining of this season. Any ideas on what would cause this. I fill my own bottles so I know that is not the issue.

pick up tube loose...
drain the bottle and remove the valve and check for leaks

Sounds to me like the tube may be an issue too ?? SJ

How do you guys remove the valve? I have a brand-new NOS 10lb bottle that leaked all the nitrous out on me! I was told there is an o-ring between the valve and bottle but I can't get that valve to budge!

I had to take one apart a few weeks ago. I used a ratchet strap and some rags and cinched it up against a pole. took a 15' cresent wrench and it came right off..... After i fought with it for an hour OH yeah , put just a touch of wd-40 on the o-ring when you put it back together...

I generally lay them on the ground, use a big wrench or cresent and a BFH to break it loose.

I took the valve out of the bottle last night and checked the tube. No cracks in it and it was not loose. I even pressure tested it with air and submerged the whole assembly in water to verify that nothing was leaking. The tube length looks correct as it is about 3/4" from the bottom of the bottle and the bend is going towards the bottom when the bottle is mounted in the car. Anything else I should check?
