Description
xOverview
LeakFinder LF2008 is a UV-fluorescent diagnostic dye designed for automotive systems that use oil-based fluids. Housed in an 8 oz twin-neck bottle, it offers a practical, cost-conscious option for both DIY enthusiasts and small to mid-size repair shops. Proudly made in the USA, this dye line reflects Tracer Products’ long-standing expertise in leak detection technology and premium fluorescent dyes.
Bright visibility under your preferred light
The dye glows a vivid yellow-green when illuminated by blue, violet, or ultraviolet light. This glow helps the eye trace fluid movement to the source, even when leaks are faint or sporadic. It’s a straightforward way to supplement traditional inspections and confirm potential trouble spots without disassembly.
What it detects
- Oil-based fluids: engine oil, fuel, ATF, and power steering fluid
- Automotive air conditioning leaks in systems using common refrigerants (R-134a, R-1234yf, and other widely used types)
- Small or intermittent leaks that may be missed by routine checks
How to use and what you gain
Introduce the dye into the target system so it circulates with the host fluid. When the system operates, dye exits at leak sites and glows under your detector lamp. A quick scan with a compatible UV/blue/violet flashlight will reveal glowing trails that point to leak sources, helping you decide where to inspect or repair.
Why professionals and DIYers choose LF2008
Designed as a budget-friendly yet effective tool, LF2008 pairs optical visibility with practical packaging. Each bottle is capable of servicing multiple vehicles, making it a convenient choice for home workshops and shop floors alike. The American-made pedigree adds consistency and trust for users who depend on reliable diagnostics. The dye line is part of a broader ecosystem trusted by OEMs and technicians worldwide, reflecting decades of refinement in leak detection dyes and tools.
Two quick bullet points on benefits
- Bright, easy-to-see fluorescence helps reveal leaks that might otherwise go unnoticed
