- Leak Tester test combustion leaks for gasoline engines.
- Not recommended for diesel engines.
- When combustion leak happens, the fluid color changes to yellow.
- Come with a sturdy plastic case.
- The powder for leak testing is sold separately.
This Leak Tester is designed for professional use and application.
The leak tester offers a quick and efficient way to test combustion leaks. This tool sucks air from the cooling system up to the leak tester. If there is carbon dioxide, the fluid color will change to yellow (means a combustion leak).
Contained : 1 set
Tool Lenth : 9.9 inches
Material Type : Transparent plastic boby and Rubber parts
How to Use Leak Tester :
1.Remove the radiator cap and check the coolant solution level (make sure coolant solution level is at least 2 to 3 inches below the opening of radiator).
2. Add the leak testing liquid into the transparent plastic boby until the "FLUID LEVEL."
3. Plug the rubber ball (no metal side) into the transparent plastic boby and use the rubber ball to suck the air from radiator into the leak tester.
4. Check the fluid color, and if its color changes to yellow, that means a combustion leak.
CAUTION :
1. Since engine will be running during test, care must be taken to assure vehicle cannot go into gear accidentally. Take necessary precautions such as securely setting hand brake, firmly blocking all four wheels, and positioning shift lever with tape or other restrains to assure it will not move. Also take care to assure your hands and arms stay well clear of engine fan, belts, and any other moving iteams.
2. Hot coolant can cause severe burns. A coolant system can fail at any time from hose rupture, gasket failure, radiator failure, etc. Protect yourself from these hazards. Wear goggles, heat resistant gloves, and outer clothing that will protest you from burn if coolant system fails during test.
NOTICE :
1. Leak Tester is only used on gasoline engines. Not recommended for Diesel Engines.
2. Do not drawn any coolant solution into the leak tester for avoiding the testing fluid contamination.
