Can anyone provide me to a link to show how the bottom part of the dipstick tube is located and held into the sump please?

 

Thanks 

Can anyone provide me with an exploded view of how the bottom half of the dipstick tube is located and held into the sump please?

 

Thanks 

Just pushes on

Brilliant thanks Clive, just what I was hoping for... 

 

So a rubber O ring and slotted into the sump yeah? 

Bottom half is metal and i assume bolted in place?

It's the bottom piece I'm referring to guys 

Does that help at all or do you mean the metal bit?

The metal bit mate... 

I've had an idea 

I'd have a guess and say it's a press fit. Would be fairly difficult to remove it without causing damage. 

 

Best bet would be to stick something in the tube like a bolt, than use some locking grips and try to rotate it. The bolt will stop the tube from crushing

The metal bit mate... 

I've had an idea 

 

uh oh....................

 

Do tell

did this ever go anywhere, or has it been reborn under a new thread?

Myself and a friend are currently waiting for the prototype... the machine shop is in the process of producing it as we speak. As soon as it arrives and is good to go the first batch will be ordered.

Also looking at producing one for the diesel engine aswel folks

Yeah, I was tracking this again on the other thread hope it turns how you're hoping

Thanks bud. We are confident the guys at the shop can deliver :-)
