Origin
The idea for the MV5545 arose from suggestions by service technicians who complained about the current inaccurate method of diagnosing and troubleshooting fuel delivery systems by pressure testing alone.
As a manufacturer, Lincoln created the FST Pro Fuel System Tester to save diagnostic time for the mechanic and reduce hazardous conditions in the shop created each time a fuel pump is mistakenly replaced. The MV5545 was designed to diagnose vehicles correctly the first time, and save fuel pump manufacturers the high costs of replacing or refunding non-defective pumps. It also saves warranty costs to automotive manufacturers.
Service technicians who use this product can substantially reduce the amount of time to diagnose whether a fuel system problem exists. Once a malfunction is proven, it will again save time by pinpointing the cause. All diagnostics are done in a safe and controlled manner while the vehicle is at idle in the shop.
Selling points:
• Saves hours of labor time spent diagnosing and troubleshooting modern fuel delivery systems.
• Allows visualization of fuel to detect impurities and air bubbles.
• All kit components are packaged in custom-molded tool case that is durable and easy to repack.
Suggested retail price: $1,065
