I have a clone of that, paid about $30 on eBay or Amazon. Works ok. Used it last night to find that the compressor front seal is leaking on my '95 E300.
They are probably not as accurate for small leaks like a professional tool, but useful enough for the occasional leak. I've confirmed one bad evaporator and a couple bad compressor seals. Using dye works on everything but the evaporator leaks. Max Dillon Charleston SC Jun 30, 2020 1:07:45 PM Allan Streib via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com>: > Anyone have one of these?
