November 30, 200916 yr If there is water in the oil but possibly due to loose oil cap and alot of rain with the bonet up. would this give a false positive on a sniffer test. Don't know wether i can just get it tested without having to flush all the oil out?
November 30, 200916 yr Isn't the sniffer test form exhaust gas in the water not oil? That is correct.:D
December 2, 200916 yr That is correct.:D thought it tested both ..just changed colour for what ever contamination!! i could be wrong?
December 2, 200916 yr thought it tested both ..just changed colour for what ever contamination!! i could be wrong? Tested mine a couple of weeks back.A glass filled with reactive agent is fitted in place of rad cap with a rubber bung.Car revved up and any fumes from water, detects any head gasket probs. Only carbon exhaust deposits only. IE oil getting into water.
