The Tracerline 8oz Dye-Lite All-in-One Leak Detection Dye (TP3400-0008) is your essential tool for accurately locating leaks in a wide range of oil and oil-based fluid systems. This advanced, full-spectrum fluorescent dye integrates seamlessly into engine oil, fuel (gasoline and diesel), automatic transmission fluid (ATF), power steering fluid, and various hydraulic and lubrication systems. When added to the fluid, the highly concentrated dye circulates throughout the system and accumulates at the precise point of any leak. By illuminating the area with an ultraviolet (UV) or UV/blue light lamp, even the smallest leaks are revealed with a bright, unmistakable yellow-green glow, allowing for quick diagnosis and repair.
KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
- Universal Compatibility: Specifically formulated as an “All-in-One” dye, it is fully compatible with all circulating oil and oil-based fluid systems, including engine oil, fuel, ATF, power steering, hydraulics, compressor oil, gearbox oil, and lubrication oil. This broad application range eliminates the need for multiple dye types.
- High Visibility Detection: Emits a vivid yellow-green fluorescence when exposed to any UV or UV/blue light lamp, making even minor leaks easy to spot and accurately pinpoint. This ensures no leak goes unnoticed, aiding in precise and efficient repairs.
- Safe and System-Friendly: Non-toxic, biodegradable, and designed to safely remain in the system’s fluids after the leak has been located. It will not alter the fluid’s properties or cause any harm to system components, providing peace of mind.
- Economical and Concentrated: An 8 oz bottle is highly concentrated, allowing it to service a significant number of vehicles, often up to 16. This cost-effective solution provides ample dye for multiple leak detection tasks.
- Trusted Professional Quality: Produced by Tracer Products (Spectronics Corporation), a global leader in fluorescent leak detection, ensuring a product that meets high industry standards and is approved by leading OEMs worldwide.

HOW TO USE:
- Determine Dosage: Refer to your vehicle’s service manual or the dye’s instructions to determine the appropriate amount of dye for your fluid system. Generally, about 1/2 oz (15 ml) is sufficient for 4–6 quarts of engine oil, and 1 oz (30 ml) for 12–18 gallons of fuel.
- Add Dye to Fluid: Using the twin-neck bottle for precise measurement, add the recommended amount of Dye-Lite All-in-One directly into the suspect fluid reservoir (e.g., engine oil fill port, power steering reservoir, fuel tank).
- Run the System: Allow the system to run for a period of time (typically 5–20 minutes, or longer for slow leaks) to allow the dye to thoroughly mix with the fluid and circulate throughout the system. For intermittent leaks, driving the vehicle may be necessary.
- Inspect with UV Light: Once the dye has circulated, use a Tracerline UV or UV/blue light lamp to scan all fluid lines, components, and potential leak points. The dye will fluoresce a bright yellow-green at the exact location of any leak.
- Pinpoint and Repair: Mark the leak locations for repair. After repairs are completed, clean any residual dye from the area to avoid false positives in the future.
BENEFITS OF USING TRACERLINE 8OZ DYE-LITE ALL-IN-ONE LEAK DETECTION DYE (TP3400-0008):
- Accurate Leak Identification: Provides a precise visual indicator of leak sources, eliminating guesswork and ensuring that repairs target the correct component.
- Time and Cost Savings: Quickly locates leaks, reducing diagnostic time and preventing the need for costly trial-and-error repairs or premature component replacement due to unidentified fluid loss.
- Preventative Maintenance: Helps identify small leaks before they escalate into major problems, protecting critical components from damage due to low fluid levels and preventing potential safety hazards.
- System Integrity: Ensures that fluid levels are maintained, contributing to optimal performance and longevity of the vehicle’s engine, transmission, steering, and hydraulic systems.
- Environmental Responsibility: By accurately identifying leaks, it helps to minimize fluid spills and environmental contamination, promoting responsible vehicle maintenance.
