Received the my new dip stick and installed it, few things I really don't like, and a couple I do.
First of all the mounting instructions are wrong, says to attach the tube to the water pump bolt, it won't attach there but will attach to frame if you make a bracket for it.
Secondly, to drain the oil takes forever, and obviously will not drain all the oil, it leaves almost a quart in the engine, not good.
I filled with oil, ran the back and made sure the oil showed full in the sight glass, then marked the dip stick by filing a small grove at the full mark, drained a half a quart of oil then marked dip stick again.
I'm not sure if I'm going to keep this dip stick or not because of the issue of draining the oil.
