Why customers choose NorthTrail Auto
LEAKFINDER LF2008 is an oil-safe, ultraviolet fluorescent dye in an 8oz twin-neck bottle that locates leaks in oil, fuel, ATF and power steering systems quickly and accurately when used with a UV lamp.
If you're troubleshooting oily spots, low fluid levels, or mysterious stains, this professional-grade dye helps you trace fluid escape routes without tearing the vehicle apart. Formulated to mix with hydrocarbon-based fluids and glow a yellow-green under UV light, the LF2008 saves diagnostic time by visually highlighting even hairline weeps and intermittent leaks. The twin-neck container meters dosage cleanly for service bays and DIY work alike.
How does the LF2008 reveal leaks I can’t see with the naked eye?
The dye is oil-compatible and circulates with the host fluid, leaving detectable fluorescence wherever fluid migrates or seeps. Under a UV or black light, contaminated areas emit a bright yellow-green glow that pinpoints the source without disassembling components.
- Designed for oil, fuel, ATF and power steering fluids.
- Fluoresces yellow-green for high contrast against grime and paint.
- Detects micro, hidden, and intermittent leaks that bleed only under pressure or heat.
Will the bottle and twin-neck design simplify dosing and reduce mess?
The LF2008's twin-neck bottle is engineered to help control how much dye you add, minimizing waste and spills during service. It pairs well with syringe-style injectors or funnels so technicians can apply consistent amounts to multiple vehicles without cross-contamination.
- Twin-neck geometry enables measured pours and easier grip.
- Compatible with common injector tools (sold separately) for precision dosing.
- Smaller dosing reduces over-addition that could interfere with system operation.
What systems and vehicles can I use this dye with?
LF2008 works in a wide range of automotive systems that use oil-based fluids — from passenger cars to light trucks. It is safe for use in engine oil circuits, fuel lines, automatic transmissions (ATF), and power steering systems when used according to instructions.
- Suitable for oil, gasoline/diesel fuel, ATF and power steering fluid systems.
- Each 8oz bottle treats up to eight service jobs or vehicles under typical dosing.
- Intended for professional shops and informed DIYers; follow vehicle manufacturer recommendations.
What tools or accessories will I need to complete a leak check?
The bottle contains dye only; you’ll need a UV/black light to visualize fluorescence and an injector or syringe for controlled application. Basic inspection tools and cleaning supplies speed diagnosis and repair after locating the leak.
- UV/black light (portable flashlight style) to view fluorescence.
- Syringe-style injector, funnel or hose adapter for accurate dosing.
- Gloves, rags and routine shop cleaners to remove excess dye post-inspection.
Who is this for: LEAKFINDER LF2008 is aimed at automotive technicians, fleet maintenance teams, and knowledgeable DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable, oil-compatible fluorescence dye to find elusive leaks quickly. It’s particularly useful in busy service environments where fast, repeatable diagnostics reduce time in the bay and prevent unnecessary disassembly. Note: Injector, hose, and UV light are sold separately; always follow safe handling and disposal practices.
