    Testing Coolant with a multimeter.

    This does not apply to our air cooled machines, but I would venture a guess that the majority of us own water cooled machinery as well.

    I had never heard of using a multimeter to test engine coolant but upon reading the description it seems to make pretty good sense.

    Read about the process HERE.

    Common testing especially on diesel engines where things get really expensive when corrosion protection lapses. Diesels are worse than gas engines at degrading coolants.
