If it ain't one thing.....................

Been scratchin me head since the nostalgias , every time i took a run (spraying) it would lay down until about 1/4 track then light the tyres & run like a scalded cat , every thing looked good on the tune when i pulled the plugs , so really had'nt figured an answer.
The only thing i could think of was the battery gettin low (pulsin the noids) , as it takes a fair few amps with the bottle blanket , fans , solinoids blah blah.............., now fitted a second bat as said in a previous post.
Was checkin a few things when i noticed the bottle pressure was 1100psi on the gauge under the bonnet & only 1000 psi on the front cowl (two gauges) , thinking the cheaper one was @ fault & the one i don't pay attention too , i fitted another one i had laying around , seems the one under the bonnet was good & the good quality one on the cowl was not calibrated right , soooooo , been sprayin the nitrous ' around 1150psi , which would account for the stumble off the line , as the nitrous is a gas & not liquid above 1069psi. It makes sense as i had better results when runnin with a 10lb bottle as opposed to the 15lb bottles.
Thinking back , when i purged the nitrous it was'nt a real good plume , bells should've started ringin then.
Gonna order another new gauge
Might get there in the end.

Edit; , might make that extra 3/10ths.
, ok ok , be nice though.
