well It's ready to go now! I'm off to jefferson Brarracks for the WWII weekend.

ok i beat on it with a hammer for a while. tweaked it with my hands and a couple pairs of channel locks (wrapped in rag) I finally got it to go down past whatever it was hitting that was sending it off into my engine, it seemed like i had to get it to line up with some little hole at the top of...

every time I try and put it in it catches on something about even with the tip of the pan and curves towards the center of the truck. maybe I'm just not getting it straight enough. I am certainly not looking for perfection I just want to be able to get the thing screwed back in!

is it supposed to be straight? will it kill my engine if I makeshift a cap for the dipstick tube? I really don't want to miss out on the WWII weekend

Is this thing supposed to be straight? mine looks like someone used it for fencing.

ok i got it out. thank you for the help. i think the real problem is my dipstick got bent somehow. Is it supposed to have a bit of a curve to it? mine is bent and twisted now that I got it out it won't go back in.

I went to check my oil as I am driving my truck out of town this weekend and haven't checked it in a couple weeks. But the dipstick wont come out. What am I doing wrong? What TM covers this? It's just supposed to turn a 1/4 turn then come out right? did i put it in wrong last time? help!
