Providing service locations the ability to diagnose a full range of vehicle and engine types.

Redline Detection, specialists in diagnostic leak detection equipment, announced they have been chosen by Mazda to manufacture essential equipment that will be used to service vehicles across North America. “We are honored to provide Mazda with this technology to support their excellent lifetime vehicle performance and legendary customer service” said Redline Detection executive vice president, Alex Parker. The Mazda Dual Purpose Diagnostic Leak Detector is designed to test the integrity of the complete engine system, from the air cleaner to the tip of the exhaust, in a single, 15-minute procedure, with 100 percent reliability, according to the company. Applications include intake system testing on diesel, gasoline and alternative fuel vehicles, both turbocharged and normally aspirated, and exhaust systems, both gasoline and more complex diesel systems with aftertreatment components. The machine goes from higher, variable pressure to low, fixed pressure with the flip of a switch to test fuel vapor recovery systems. This equipment provides the ability to test a full range of vehicle and engine types. By generating variable pressure from 0.5 to 20 PSI, the equipment gives technicians the ability to adjust flow for easy, quick, and 100 percent reliable diagnosis across the model range, according to the company. The machine creates a dense, highly visible vapor without the use of dyes and is safe for technicians, safe for vehicles and safe for the environment.
