OIL LEAK DIAGNOSIS
Most fluid oil leaks are easily located and repaired by visu-
ally finding the leak and replacing or repairing the neces-
sary parts. On some occasions, a fluid leak may be difficult
to locate or repair. The following procedures may help you
in locating and repairing most leaks.
Finding the Leak:
1. Identify the fluid. Determine whether it is engine oil,
automatic transmission fluid, power steering fluid,
etc.
2. Identify where the fluid is leaking from.
1) After running the vehicle at normal operating
temperature, park the vehicle over a large sheet
of paper.
2) Wait a few minutes.
3) Find the approximate location of the leak by the
drippings on the paper.
3. Visually check around the suspected component.
Check around all the gasket mating surfaces for
leaks. A mirror is useful for finding leaks in areas
that are hard to reach.
4. If the leak still cannot be found, it may be neces-
sary to clean the suspected area with a degreaser,
steam, or spray solvent.
1) Thoroughly clean the area.2) Dry the area.
3) Operate the vehicle for several miles at normal
operating temperature and varying speeds.
4) After operating the vehicle, visually check the
suspected component.
5) If you still cannot locate the leak, try using the
powder or black light and dye method.
Powder Method:
1. Clean the suspected area.
2. Apply an aerosol–type powder, (such as foot pow-
der), to the suspected area.
3. Operate the vehicle under normal operating condi-
tions.
4. Visually inspect the suspected component. Trace
the leak path over the white powder surface to the
source.
Black Light and Dye Method:
A dye and light kit is available for finding leaks. Refer to the
manufacturer ’s directions when using the kit.
1. Pour the specified amount of dye into the engine oil
fill tube.
2. Operate the vehicle under normal operating condi-
tions as directed in the kit.
3. Direct the light toward the suspected area. The
dyed fluid will appear as a yellow path leading to
the source.
