Hi there Race! Happy to help! For this dye you would do 1 oz to 8 pints (4 quarts) for automatic transmission fluid. 1 oz for 5 quarts of motor oil, and 1 oz for 5 gallons of fuel so for 14 gallons you would need 3 ounces of the dye.Answered on 11/18/2015 by Panda from AAP

Q:
The specs say it will work with petroleum based lubricants, but what about synthetic based oils?Asked on 9/19/2014 by jmo691 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
I'm happy to help, Jmo69! The Interdynamics Oil and Fuel Systems UV Dye (Part No. 374CS) is not recommended for use with synthetic oil. At this time there is not a UV dye available through AdvanceAutoParts.com that is compatible with synthetic motor oil. You may check with your local store to see if they may be able to locate or recommend a UV dye that is compatible with synthetic motor oils.Answered on 9/25/2014 by Heath, ASE Parts Specialist from AAP

I'm happy to help, Shadow83! This UV dye requires a normal 55 lumens LED blacklight flashlight or similar. I was able to locate a led flashlight with this power - Performance Tools LED FLASHLIGHT - Part No. W2456. A yellow tinted safety glass is also recommended when using the flashlight. Here are the links for these parts -

how long does this have to be in the oil to start seeing the dye??Asked on 12/11/2012 by cooter from stoughton wi1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
This Interdynamics Oil and Fuel Systems UV Dye (1 oz.) -(Part No. 374CS) should stay until it become too diluted with the oil and the exact time depends on the speed of the leak. An engine with slower leaks will take more time to detect than with faster leaks.
