Default 81 oil dipstick
Hello, I am new here and hope some one may be able to help me. I have an 81 that is missing the engine oil dipstick. I have tried every where to find one to no avail. Could some one please measure how long there stick is and how far up the hash marks are from the end. If any body knows where I might be able to obtain a dipstick I would be grateful and would buy it ASAP.
Regards
ToddG
