Reply to "OIL DIPSTICK AND TUBE"

wish i had this info about a month ago. ordered my dipstick and tube from precision proformance and figured it would be a shot in the dark as to the accuracy and sure enough with the correct amount of oil it didn't even come close. at least it came up way short so i just stuck it in and watched where it fell, each time i would trim a small amount off of the entrance of the tube with a small tube cutter until it fell exactly where it should be reading. this took about 4 cuts and took off approx. 1 1/4" from the length of the tube all the time being very careful not to cut too much off at one time. it's probably not dead nuts on but i now know when i need a quart or two. i guess this method is only good if your stick is not going down far enough.....damn man, (stick, tube, length of tube, sticking it in, shot in the dark, almost sounds like a porn film dosen't it),
