Tracerline LeakFinder 8oz Oil-Based Leak Detection Dye (LF2008)

Tracerline LeakFinder 8oz Oil-Based Leak Detection Dye (LF2008) is expertly designed to help identify and pinpoint leaks in a wide array of oil-based fluid systems. Manufactured by Tracerline, a leader in fluorescent leak detection technology, this product simplifies the often challenging task of locating fluid escapes in vehicles and other machinery. The dye is formulated to be safely added directly into engine oil, fuel, automatic transmission fluid (ATF), and power steering fluid systems without compromising their performance or integrity. Once circulated, even the most minute leaks become glaringly apparent when illuminated by a compatible blue, violet, or ultraviolet (UV) leak detection flashlight, glowing a vivid yellow/green.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Targeted Leak Detection: Specifically formulated for oil-based fluid systems, including engine oil, fuel, transmission fluid, and power steering fluid, ensuring specialized and effective leak identification.
• High Visibility Fluorescence: When exposed to a blue, violet, or UV light, the dye emits a bright yellow/green glow, making leaks that are otherwise invisible quickly and easily detectable.
• Efficient Application: The 8 oz (237 ml) twin-neck bottle design allows for accurate and spill-free measurement and addition of the dye into fluid systems, simplifying the application process.
• Broad System Compatibility: Safely integrates into existing fluid systems without altering the properties of lubricants or impacting equipment function, ensuring no harm to vehicle components.
• Economical Coverage: A single 8 oz bottle is capable of servicing up to 8 vehicles, providing a cost-effective solution for multiple applications or fleet maintenance.
• Continuous Monitoring: The dye remains active within the fluid system, allowing for ongoing leak detection and acting as a proactive tool for future maintenance and issue prevention.

HOW TO USE:

1. Identify the System: Determine which oil-based fluid system you suspect has a leak (e.g., engine oil, transmission fluid, power steering, or fuel).
2. Add the Dye: Following the vehicle manufacturer’s guidelines for fluid levels, add the appropriate amount of Tracerline LeakFinder LF2008 dye into the system’s reservoir or fill port. The twin-neck bottle allows for precise measurement; typically, 1 ounce per vehicle is sufficient.
3. Circulate the Dye: Operate the vehicle for a short period (usually 5–10 minutes, or as recommended by the dye instructions for specific systems) to allow the dye to thoroughly mix with the fluid and circulate throughout the system.
4. Inspect for Leaks: Using a compatible blue, violet, or ultraviolet (UV) leak detection flashlight, scan all areas where leaks are suspected. The dye will fluoresce a bright yellow-green at the leak site, clearly indicating its location.
5. Clean Up (Optional): Once the leak is identified and repaired, any residual dye on external surfaces can be cleaned if desired, though the dye is designed to remain in the system for ongoing monitoring without harm.
