You got it!!
I saw it break loose but kept my foot in anyway to see what would happen :)
Only took 10 seconds to fix it though !!

Lucky it was the Nitrous line - although the fuel line is only 12 psi - fuel spraying onto hot exhaust manifolds is never a good idea........

Then again if it had been a loose fuel line the pistons would not last.
So swings and roundabouts.
anything loose on the nitrous system can be a real bad thing :(
