Purpose-built fluid for leak detection

Metra ALP-FLUID-8 is an 8 Fl Oz smoke machine cleaner formulated for automotive diagnostics. The USP-grade mineral oil base produces clean-burning, low-odour, highly visible smoke. It is non-toxic, low-residue and safe for EVAP systems, oxygen sensors and catalytic converters.

Suits technicians using compatible smoke machines

This fluid works with AutoLine Pro testers and most other brands of smoke machines for EVAP, vacuum, intake, exhaust, turbo, supercharger, EGR, cooling system and body-work leak tests. It is not for the AutoLine Pro VENTUS smoke machine, which requires dedicated VENTUS fluid.

Delivers extended test time per bottle

Each bottle provides up to 800 minutes of continuous thick smoke output, reducing the frequency of refills during long diagnostic sessions. The American family-owned manufacturer offers direct US-based customer support if issues arise.
