    1) Nitrous solenoids need nitrous flowing through them to prevent overheating, and should not be powered for more than 10 seconds without flow or 30 seconds with flow. They draw high amperage and must be isolated from engine heat. Wire gauges of 16AWG or larger are required. 2) Fuel solenoids are red and nitrous solenoids are black or blue. Wiring diagrams show using a relay and switches to safely operate solenoids from the battery with proper fusing.

    Installation Guidelines for Solenoids

    1) Nitrous solenoids need to have Nitrous flowing through them to keep them from burning out. They can
    draw up to 20amps and will create lots of heat. Do not let them turn on without nitrous flowing
    through them for more than 10 seconds or the coils will melt and the fuse will blow. Do not turn
    them on for more than 30 seconds even if nitrous is flowing to keep them cool! If you cannot follow
    these guidelines email us and we can tell you how to avoid these issues. Do not mount the solenoids
    directly to the intake manifold or engine; it must be isolated from the heat. You must use at least 16
    AWG wire! If the wires run a long ways use 14AWG wire! Do not use any toggle switches in line with
    the solenoid as they can melt due to the high current going through them. Nitrous Burns and Gasoline is
    flammable so be careful! And yes to your question, All Nitrous solenoids are designed this way because
    of the extreme nature of the application. Mount you solenoid in a cool temperature location! Extreme
    pressure will kill your solenoid seal so do not even open your bottle if it has been sitting in the sun!
    2) NOTE: Fuel solenoids have red power wires and Nitrous solenoids use black or blue power wires.
