    To anyone who buys this machine: DO NOT USE CHEMTOOL B12 OR ANY HARSH CHEMICAL FOR THE TESTING FLUID ON THIS MACHINE!!! It will EAT away at the internal plastic parts of the tubes and tank mechanism and destroy it. I learned this the hard way, and my man here on this video learned it quietly as well. This machine is intended to be used with Isopropyl Alcohol 91% or higher for the testing fluid, and a mix of water and ultrasonic cleaning agent for the bath. I contacted Autool about my machine’s demise, and luckily they sent me a replacement seal kit, tank, and fuel pump. I also had to replace a plastic tray that directs all the liquid into the tank. It was a nasty mess… Otherwise, this is a pretty nice machine, and Autool honors the 3 year warranty. Beware of the black gooey mess 😅

    FYI, the CT160 does have a filter sock on the internal pump. The pump and cylinder drain are not sealed to the tank, so don't tip the machine over. I'm happy with mine. Just switched to no-odor mineral spirits, kerosene stinks! Don't use the "green" mineral spirits. I've discovered several amazon/ebay special injectors that were DOA.

Are there any other chemicals that can be used that won’t harm injectors and parts? Is the mineral spirits a one time use and throw away deal? Do you throw away as it gets dirty?
    For the actual ultrasonic cleaning solution, any other recommended chemicals? I’ve seen folks use carb cleaner, or even the pour in tank style chemicals. What are other options? Thanks again!
