Dye to locate oil leak?
I have been to AutoZone for the dye & black light to find my oil leak,,, as suggest in my other post.
They carry a dye and glasses for the AC system. Would this be OK in the oil?
Or does anyone know where I can buy a dye specific for locating oil leaks?
In the mean time, I will call around to the various part stores.

That's not the stuff you want. Tracer dye usually comes in a kit with two bottles, one for finding coolant leaks, and one for every other kind of leak.
