Anybody out their that has used oil dye can probably help me. I went down and bought a ounce of oil dye added it to a quart of oil, mixed and dumped into motor. also bought a black light that screwed into my trouble light. After running it for a coulple miles and making sure that it was leaking oil I started looking for where the oil was coming from with the black light. My problem is the dyed oil did not look any different under the black light. Just looked like oil. I even pulled the dip stick and gazed at it under the black light, no difference. Is their a differece between a black light and a uv light? Do I need something else besides a black light, guy at the parts store said something about yellow glasses. Thanks guys.
