i think my bottle has aleak in it at the nozzle end. How do i test to see if it does. i just filled it up and tightened her down good. I did not hear any leak coming from the bottle end, or under the hood. How do i test it effectively? Also, someone told me that thes NOS bottles are notorious for leaking. and said that it may have a recall on it! has anyone ever heard about this? Thanks for replies!
