Usage
Designed for real‑world automotive environments, the FORTIVO kit excels in a variety of diagnostic scenarios. Whether you are confirming a suspected blown head gasket on a daily driver, performing routine maintenance on a fleet of service trucks, or troubleshooting a high‑performance motorcycle engine, the kit delivers consistent results. The testing process involves adding a measured 2 ml of the leak detection fluid to the radiator, connecting the universal adapter, and running the engine to allow the fluid to circulate. As the engine reaches operating temperature, any combustion gases that escape through a compromised gasket will cause the fluid to bubble, providing a visual indication of the leak location. This method eliminates the need for invasive disassembly, reduces downtime, and protects sensitive engine components from damage. The kit is also suitable for use in educational settings, where automotive technology students can safely observe leak detection principles in action.

FAQ
How does the leak detection fluid work?
The fluid contains a special formulation that creates visible bubbles when it comes into contact with combustion gases escaping through a head gasket breach. By adding a small amount to the radiator and running the engine, any leak will be highlighted by the bubbling action, allowing you to locate the problem area quickly.
Can this kit be used on diesel engines?
Yes, the kit is compatible with both gasoline and diesel engines. The universal adapter and fluid formulation are designed to work with the pressure and temperature conditions typical of diesel combustion cycles, providing accurate leak detection across engine types.
What maintenance is required for the adapter?
After each use, flush the adapter with clean water and dry it thoroughly to prevent residue buildup. Periodic inspection for wear or corrosion is recommended, and any damaged components should be replaced to maintain optimal performance.
Is the fluid safe for the cooling system?
The coolant tester fluid is engineered to be non‑corrosive and compatible with standard coolant mixtures. It will not damage the radiator, water pump, or hoses when used as directed, making it safe for repeated testing cycles.
What warranty does FORTIVO provide?
FORTIVO offers a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. If you encounter any issues with the kit, contact our support team for troubleshooting assistance or a replacement part under the warranty terms.
