I have a dipstick curiosity.I think every 1275 I remember had a plastic tube
stuck into the block which the dipstick went into. The 1275 I have here has a
brass piece ( it falls out , but it is machined to fit into the block) instead
of the plastic tube and someone changed the marks on the dipstick.  I can
eventualy mark a dipstick with proper marks once I have an assembled motor with
the right amount of oil in the sump.  If the brass piece I have is a correct
piece from a year I'm not familiar with .. Ok I will use it. But I can not
trust the dipstick to be correct.So, if anyone has one of these types in their
1275 could you please send me the measurement from the step on the dipstick (
where it stops going into the brass tube) down to the scribed " full" mark? I
would appreciate this before I go through cleaning up what I have and
fabricating a hold down to retain it at speed.  Thank you!ChuckI really am
going to finish this car!( at times I thought it was going to finish me!)Â Sent
