Verticle vs Horizontal bottle mounting

I have only seen this discussed *lightly* in the past. I was just curious as to who has their bottles mounted Verticle - and are you seeing any issues with it? If you are please let me know.

I am chasing a N20 "sputtering" problem right now - seems like I cant get all the air out of the line - my bottle is currently Verticle - but it is 100% full.....

Please post your thoughts on Verticle vs Horizontal - the bottle that is http://web.camaross.com/bb/wink.gif

45 degree is the best way to go. When you have it vertical it settles to the bottom. It is gas but it is still cold and cold air (which has nitrogen and oxygen in it) sinks. Hope this fixes your problem. Also if you dont have a purge kit get one.

Either one is just fine. The key is to be sure the siphon tube is pointed to the rear of the car. If the bottle is vertical, the Valve/feedline needs to be pointed to the back of the car (Label Facing the dash).

Angled/Horizontal is better IMO, but vertical should work just fine for ya so long as the bottle is pointed the right way. http://web.camaross.com/bb/smile.gif

Good luck!

I've seen a few lately with the siphon tubes removed, and the bottles mounted upside down. I'd like to know if there's any advantage to that.

Now that is an interesting idea....... Thats how the refill stations bottles are mounted - so I suppose it really wouldnt matter.......

A buddie of mine had sputtering problems when his fuel pressure saftey switch was bad.

Thats interesting about taking the tube out and mounting upside down.
