UV leak detection kit

Post by Deedee91 »

Trawling through eBay and stumbled across a UV kit to find leaks in your cooling system seems like a handy thing to have. Anybody ever used one of these? I looked for reviews but found nothing not sure how effective it would be or whether or not it may gum up your coolant system

I know a guy how used one once :lol: he said it worked, but wasn't just easy to spot the dye either and it'd have been as quick to find it using a bit of paper towel :lol:
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Haha I didn't think they would be that effective! They have an equivalent for oil and fuel I imagine that one would work pretty well..
