I've got a bottle of the NAPA coolant test strips that will long be expired before I ever get a chance to use em' up, so if anybody needs em' let me know. I figure we can all just use one or two and send em' on to the next guy who wants to test his coolant.
They measure nitrates, glycol % and ph. These are the strips that indicate if you have exhaust gas in your coolant (acidic coolant shows possible exhaust gas).
I'm sending them out to another member tomorrow, so if you want them next just PM me and I'll start a list. The bottle started with 50 strips and after me and my buddies used some I believe there are 38-40 left (I suggest doing 2 tests just to verify results).
Again in no way is there any charge to use these strips, just pay to mail them to the next guy. The box says they expire in 3/2012, but my mechanic says they can be used after that if kept sealed up, dry and outta the sun. BTW, I'm posting this in the 6.0 tech section, but if a mod has a spot so more folks can see it please move it there. Thanks guys.:toast:
