Freon detector
 

Im looking for a budget minded freon detector. I have a leak that I cant find. There is dye in the system, but not a visible leak. I need a sniffer to locate the leak.

Budget is less that $100.

Any suggestions?

i got a great buy off ebay years ago. Look for a heated diode style, "TIF" brand is good stuff. Diagnosed many mysterious freon leaks by checking the evaporator core. The most overlooked ac part.

The TIF detector looks to be made by Robinair and found plenty for around $100.

The evap core in my Tahoe is buried under the dash. I did split the case a little to peak in there, but didnt see much. I was hoping if the leak was there some of the dye would have sweat thru the drain. No luck.
