Bob,

d the tube into the block. Never lost another one. I also want something ea=

I suppose "to each, his own"
But I'm with Steve.
I check my oil level, I'll bet, some times 20+ checks a weekend.
I want something that's quick, easy and doesn't require tools or cleaning.=

A clean towel is all I need to grab. And done.

Hi,
I somehow managed to lose the dip stick tube for my latest engine. So, what=
's the consensus:
1. fabricate a tube from some aluminum
2. drill / tap the block for an AN fitting and fab up a dip stick of the pr=
oper length
???
In other words, I'm looking for suggestions.
Oddly, three engine block cores and no dip stick tubes. What's up with that=
?
Regards,
Bob Lang
