Orion Motor Tech’s OMT kit bundles a manual vacuum\/pressure pump, 15 color-coded adapters, a protected 2.5-inch gauge, a probe thermometer, and accessories in a molded case so you can test quickly on many common makes and models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I use this kit to find a radiator or cooling-system leak?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse the kit to pressurize the cooling system at the radiator or expansion tank and watch the gauge for pressure loss. A steady drop indicates a leak path; visual inspection while pressurized helps locate external leaks, while pressure that drops with no visible leak suggests internal issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAttach the correct adapter to the radiator filler or reservoir using the color-coded, labeled pieces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConnect the hose and hand pump, then build pressure slowly up to the gauge limit (35 psi \/ 2.5 bar).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eObserve the gauge and inspect hose connections, clamps, radiator seams, and engine areas for escaping coolant or air bubbles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse the probe thermometer to verify coolant temperature if needed before or after the test.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich vehicles and components are compatible with the 15 adapters?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit’s 15 adapters cover a wide range of radiator filler necks and overflow reservoirs commonly found on European, American, and Asian passenger cars.
