hey, i was wondering, does anyone know how to take out the dipstick tube thats stuck on the block? my other block dosent have one and i need it to come off. i tried turning it or pulling it. hasent worked. thanks

After it is unbolted, there is only an o-ring "holding" it in there, a little more wiggle and allot more pull should do it.

just pull. after you unscrew the one fastener of course!

Think he's talking about the lower one that's in the block, it's pressed in.
