Ya sure but I'm on Maui for a week then ill be back on Kauai and can.
Yes it does. A dipstick blowing out is indicative of crankcase pressure which means the rings aren't sealing. That has everything to do with piston selection, machining and assembly.
^^ would you have an idea what compression these pistons are supposed to be? From what I can see the guy I got them from got them from you guys years ago. Thx for any info
Or the pcv system failed.
A dipstick tube holder is not a fix for a failed pcv system. Is that what you were suggesting with your comment? I sure hope not.

Or you guys are bumping posts that are 3yrs old. THREAD\I don't think that's what she means at all. The most common cause is a bad pcv valve which allows pressurized air from the intake manifold to go back into the crankcase. This is the most common cause of dipsticks being blown out. A new o-ring around the dipstick, a new dipstick tube, or a spring to keep it from popping out are NOT the correct fixes.
