Dynotune nitrous bottles
Somehow my valve knob was open and I screwed In a bottle.
It blew the oring on the brass neck and leaked. so I turned the bottle more
which blew the seal between the bottle and the brass neck.
It was a full bottle ,emptied in about 2 seconds I nearly shit myself as I
had my hands on the bottle at the time!!!
So ALWAYS check the valve !!!!
On a good note I got a PB on pump fuel!

Similar happened to me on 1st bottle.
I didn't realise that the bottle filling valve is left hand thread and turned all the way to the right is open, all the way to left is closed .... I damn near freeze burned myself... LOL

i just did a fix myself and bought a bag of 500 o rings for like 3 bucks off of eBay for when it happens again and the good thing about the bottles is there just paint ball bottles so there cheap if you don't trust it
