hi, in sa we havent had a usuable racetrack (drag) for quite a few years.
i used to run 100hp-175hp nitrous on my xr back then.
i still have a full nos bottle and was wondering if it will still do anything after 10 years.
anyone had experience with old gas?

bottle is way past date, but still looks brand new.
refillers have never checked it date wise

bottle is stamped 88, has lost a little, just put on the scales and it weighed weighed 9.2kg / 20.28lb. bottle says 23.6lbs full

hmmm might have to refit it and give it a try, not on the street but

Invite a few friends and give it a try in the loungeroom

nope, ive heard the industrial stuff is tainted to stop people doing exactly that, and someone will end up asphyxiated - some idiot kids did it in a car a few years back and got very dead

Doesn't matter what grade or type of gas it is, it will asphyxiate you all the same if you breath it continuously for a few minutes and it replaces the life-giving oxygen (O2) in your lungs with NOS, CO, CO2, LPG etc and so your blood runs out of oxygen for life to continue:(
Some gases like Hydrogen cyanide deprive the blood of oxygen by blocking the oxygen receptors on the red blood cells, causing irriversable death. Never mix acid with cyanide was the first thing I learnt when I became an electroplater.

I wouldnt try and huff it, automotive nitrous oxide contains up to 100ppm of sulphur dioxide, take it from me if you try youll be gagging and coughing your guts up.

i had a mate blast me in the face with it as a joke, couldnt keep my eyes open for a couple of hours.
it has a warning on the side of the bottle about the sulpur dioxide
