How can i tell if the correct oil dipstick is in my 50 model chevy
it looks like there is a quarter inch or less gap between the stick seating and the top of the tube that it goes into,the stick remains exposed about quarter inch, the handle appears to have been resoldered onto the stick, is there a length spec somewhere of this dipstick so i can get replacment on 216, i also wonder if maybe a grommet or seal is supposed to be there to fill the gap
thanks
Ken
