Hello Can you measure the length of your dip stick?

[miliman13]

I have a 6 bolt. but i believe the part number is the same for all gens.
I need to know the length of a oem dip stick so i can accurately measure my oil level.
I would greatly appreciate this, if someone can help. Thank you.

You are awsome! Thank you very much.
Is that the metal part only correct? not including handle?

I'm pretty positive when I compared them side by side they were identicle. I pitched the 6-bolt one cause it looked like crap compared to the 7-bolt one with the plastic handle.

They are the same. Currently using a 1g dip stick as my 2g dipstick broke.

Problem with that is that the 2g ones always break. They are the same length.

hummm what are all of you talking about??
did you miss the part where i asked for the length , this is not a discussion about what dipstick you have, or if it's different from one gen to the next.>>?

Thats correct. just the metal part that goes into the tube, not handle,its actually just under 17"

^ BoostdAwd , Ec17pse. Thank you both very much i greatly appreciate it, And i applaud you both for your reading and comprehension skills .

So it looks like the length of the stick, or what submerges under the tube is about 17+ - 18".
Excellent this is helpful to anyone who wishes to use a universal stick and save a few dollars compared to oem.

For me this will allow me to examine why my level fell so low, on a new blueprinted engine with no leaks and no smoke..
Thanks again guys, you are what this site is all about.

Hahaha, no worries man, its just a little under 17". as long as the markings read in roughly the same area then you will be safe as you dont want it too high or too low and rear funny, under the plastic handle is about another 1" but of course thats not seen or used apart from connecting the handle.
