engine oil dip stick
trying to get a oil dip stick for a 85-96 chevy 350 that is on right side of motor. for a s-10. go to dealer and they need to know what the application is for. got a chrome one from a speed shop and it leaks. any help. thanks
|
Any should work. I'd just tell them it's for a C1500 to keep it simple....
|
dip stick
all tubes are two long . all i need is a tube 6-9 inch. long
|
put silicone around the chrome and put it back in.. :D
|
tried that. chrome ones are to tight. tried to grind off some chrome with silicone now it leaks. would like to find one from general motors and try it.
|
On my motor I had to put a o-ring on the shoulder of the dipstick tube where it goes into the pan and then silicon the hell out of it. Now its dry as a popcorn fart down there now.

Is it blowing the dipstick out? Or leaking where it goes in the block at the bottom?
|
just leaking.
|
Pull out the dipstick and put a freezeplug in the hole. I have a site pulg in the side of my oil pan and with this setup no leaks!!!!!
|
where do you get a freese plg that small? the hole is 27/64". thanks
|
I have used a small bolt and some black silicon for this
|
The plugs that go around the cam fit.
|
I have a dipstick tube that I welded a strap to to bolt it in the block right below the dipstick. You could do the same and add some silicone to it before you slide it in..should fix the issue. I was using a chrome dipstick too. I can probably post a picture sometime if needed..
