Dipstick tube from a pinto

don't ask

I got one

buy it off ya?

You havn't been let down again have you matey ???

Jason

Yep! Was sent the correct dipstick (i hope) but they knackered the tube so didn't send it. Was told to cut mine down to 230 mil which i did but the dipstick won't bend round the curves in the old tube so it's no good. Gary GSX has got one and is going to bring it round. What a star!! Saved me throwing the pinto out in the road!

Why can't i just have an engine that is complete with the right working parts? .......I'm a little peed off at the mo but will calm down after a cuppa.

I guess that's the problem If your sold an engine that's been rebuilt, but not sold as a working unit, parts can get missed out VERY easily if it's not all kept together

Jason

Yeah, i sometimes wish i had gotten hold of a decent sierra (if there is such a thing!! )

Oh well

Hmmm, my tube's got a bit loose (oooh sir! ). How hard is it to replace them?

I assumed they were pressed or braised in place. Is this not the case?

Cheers,
James

theyre are just a push fit james

I know a dipstick with a Pinto!!!



ONLY JOKING!! Nr Nut,

When you build MK 3 it would probably be best to source you're own donor parts, then you can keep loads of nuts & bolts and odds an sods, could save a load P*** b***ing about in the long run...........

When is the SVA?

Numer 3!!!! nooooooooooooooooooooo

Dunno when SVA will be as i have not had the car inspected yet plus i'm still waiting on my exhaust which is still on another car waiting for it's SVA at MK's so i can't run my engine till i get it. Could be another couple weeks before i get it

But were getting there!!
