Do I need any special tools to use this detector?

No. This kit comes complete with everything required for leak detection. You'll only need basic hand tools to access your water tank and cooling lines.

Can I use this on any vehicle's cooling system?

Yes. The detector works on any water tank or radiator setup — domestic or import. Works with standard coolant systems regardless of vehicle type.

What if I find a leak — do I need to prep or clean anything before repair?

Once you've located the leak, clean the area with a dry cloth and let it fully dry. A clean surface gives you a clear view of exactly where the problem is before you seal or replace the component.
