A lot of us might have found ourselves in a situation where a car is leaking coolant, but we simply cannot diagnose where from. This kit can help us determine if there is a leak somewhere in the engine, and where leaks are coming from.

The kit is also designed to detect internal engine leaks caused by blown head gaskets and cracks in the block and head. You test it by finding the suitable adaptor for your engine, connecting the pressure adaptor, and pumping pressure between 10-15psi. If the pressure gauge moves, you have a leak.
