Every couple of months my teflon paste cracks and leaks, and I have to replace it and take all my selenoids apart, this is getting old. Does anybody have a better product that they use?

I haven't ever had any problems with teflon paste cracking. I used it on mine and don't have any leaks. How much are you applying?

just enough to cover the threads that's all. Yeah evey 6 months, or so it seems like I have to re-do it.

I think I redo my kit every 6 months anyways, but no I've never had that problem. I've used blue loc-tite before also.

So teflon tape is totally out of the question, or only if your not careful? Because my problem is that, I know for a fact that if you keep messing with aluminum fittings, the threads are soft and will eventually strip, so I would like to find something that holds up a little longer.

teflon tape sucks and won't hold the pressure. it leaks right away. i havent checked my seals lately, but i have noticed that if i keep my bottle on for 30 mins, my nitrous level goes down and i can't have a super loud purge :"(

Use loctite brand paste, my stuff I applied oer a year ago is still soft if you touch it and have had no problem with leaking.

Never use teflon tape in a nitrous install. That stuff will flake off and get caught in your jets or on your seals. Either one of those situations could blow a motor.

Okay, thanks that's what I thought, I can take off my line directly to the intake tube and hit the button and N2o will spray out, but as soon as I hook it back up to the intake and go test it, nothing, I wonder if my safety switch isn't letting it work. I had this problem before and I can't remember what it was.
