What test strips???

Went to the auto parts store today and asked for the test strips to check the additives in the coolant for a diesel and they looked at me funny!! They had some test strips that would tell you the boiling point and PH but they didnt know if these were the ones I wanted? Are those them if not which ones do I need to ask for.

I use the Fleetguard test strips and have always ordered them and all the Stanadyne products from Diesel Injection Service at dieselpage.com.
I think NAPA sells them also, but DIS has always treated me good so I stick with them.

If you can ever make it to interstate turbo in commerce city they have a good deal on them, I bought a package of 7 with a laminated card for 3 bucks, or a bottle of 50 for 13.00.

Thanks for the info 77hiboyboy, actually a buddy of mine's brother works for the utility company here as a mechanic and he hooked me up with a bottle of the fleetguard strips last week. He's always bringing "goodies" to us for our Powerstrokes. No wonder our utility bills keep rising. Do they sell the Stanadyne products at Interstate Turbo?

Thanks again,

Austin
