I bought some UV leak detector dye to try and pin down an engine oil
leak. I put double the amount of dye in the oil as instructions call
for because I'm just not finding anything that glows. I am using a
"glow in the dark" florescent light as my UV light source. I'm not
seeing much glow in the dark as far as finding the oil leaks. I have
to get the light VERY close to see anything seemingly "glow' and it's
so close I can't really tell if it's glowing or if it's just the light
reflecting.
Has anyone done this and is there some special type of UV light needed
that's different from my dime store UV florescent??
