Napa block tester

[Supra5MGTE]

Picked one up today. $48. comes with the fluid, tester and bulb. Is there anything I should know about using it before hand or just follow the directions? should I drive the car around? rev it up? or what.

Just follow the instructions. You don't need to move the car, you can do the test in neutral.

They're getting $48 for those things these days? Yikes. What a scam those things are considering you can by the fluid for $7 and rig up the tester part for peanuts. I haven't used one in years but just follow the directions.

I'm not a big fan of quick fixes but there's always this stuff. In both cases I've seen it used it worked but that was for stock boost levels:

I tested it like 3x's... came out good. I don't think i had the radiator levels down enough. i kept sucking up some fluid. or vapor.
