Product Overview

This easy-to-use test kit uses color-changing CO2 test fluid to identify combustion gas presence in your vehicle's cooling system, eliminating guesswork when diagnosing head gasket failures, cracked cylinder heads or engine block damage. The unique dual chamber design prevents test fluid contamination for more reliable results and longer test fluid life.

Common Faults & Replacement Symptoms

  • White sweet-smelling exhaust smoke indicating coolant burning in combustion chambers
  • Coolant loss without visible external leaks, or bubbling in the radiator/coolant reservoir
  • Engine overheating with no obvious cause, or milky oil appearance on dipstick
  • Persistent misfiring on one or more cylinders with no ignition or fuel system faults
  • Failed emissions test due to high hydrocarbon levels from coolant entering combustion chambers

Ideal For

This kit is ideal for DIY vehicle owners, professional automotive technicians, heavy equipment mechanics and motorcycle repair shops looking for a reliable, affordable tool to diagnose head gasket and cooling system issues across a wide range of vehicle types.
