The 'Imperial Gallon' is 4 liters instead of 4 quarts....but it isn't much of a difference. An Imperial Gallon is 1.06 US gallons.

I think you mixed up the units on that conversion, should be liters and quarts.

1 liter = 1.0566882 quart



1 gallon [UK] = 1.2009499 gallon [US, liquid]

You sure about that?

4 liters = 135.30 ounces = 4.2280 quarts = 1.057 gallons...

Going off all the conversion sites an "Imperial Gallon" is not 4 liters. It's ~4.5 liters.

1 gallon [UK] = 4.54609 liter <--Online conversions.

http://www.sizes.com/properties/capacity.htm#convert <-- Go there, plug in numbers.

1 U.S. gallon (gal) = 231 cubic inches <---both from http://www.kbapps.com/conversion.html
1 imperial gallon (gal) = 277.4 cubic inches

I'm sure the rest will agree so I only went to three.

That's because you've been inhaling the nitrous instead of putting it in your engine.

I'll check that out on onlineconversion.com...it's probably there.

Thicker than the 1500HD?
