Somebody has a gadget that makes the dipstick pulling not an injurious affair!!! Who is it??
I know, who pulls the dipstick??
For those of you that do check the oil religiously (or secularly, if you prefer), snatching it out of its hidey hole can be a knuckle buster and/or a nail bender, unless you've got Little Chuckie hands.
Out with it then!! What do you use?!?

Re: Pulling the #%$@ Dipstick
Unfortunately I use busted up knuckles.
Actually getting it out isn't the problem, it's finding the hole to get it back in (I know, there's a bad joke waiting to be said).

Re: Pulling the #%$@ Dipstick
That's great news on the engine. I was fearing the worst.
Personally I'm getting sick of patching them up again and again and again...
But with the budget the way it is, I'm stuck for now.
