The latest Summitt catalogue shows a 289 chrome dipstick and tube for about $12.00. If anyone questions the chrome tube, tell them it was a rare prototype for the LAT 2 option. Dave Johnson

Correct me if I am wrong, but the LAT 2 options included 4 things (1) Chrome Air Cleaner Top (1) Polished TIGER valve covers (3) Chrome Oil breather and (4) Chrome Dip Stick. No mention of the dip s

The tube should work fine. The dipstick will depend on whether you have a stock pan, LAT pan, etc. Best thing is to compare the length, side by side. I'm sure the new dipstick from Summitt does not h

Hey, that is one great reply about why the bottom was chromed - rust protection. The only thing on the Tiger that is! NOW I can say - "if those diagonal braces weren't chromed, they could rust throu

I didn't quite say it right. I had only the dip stick chromed. I left the tube untouched. You are right about reverse chroming the dip stick. But first I want to scope things out when I have the pan

See Steve if you had a Sunbeam with a proper English motor (Alpine), then the whole of the engine bay is rust protected by the Oil Mist system Cheers Vic

More blind luck than intelligence. I can only hazard a guess on the different dip stick. It probably has something to so with the aluminum water pump housing that most Tigers have verses the cast ir

But doesn't the MK II with its 5 bolt 289 have a cast iron aluminum water pump and housing. At least Ken Bishop's is that way and he has owned it from almost new. I believe I read in Bill Carrol's bo

The MK II has a 6 bolt engine, which is where the iron water pump housing started. Don't know what Ken bishop had. Better count the bolts again. Iron pump goes with 6 bolt. -- ______________________

Theo and Dave, If you put in a new filter, put in the 4 quarts, run the engine to charge the filter and let it all drain back, then read the stick, it ought to read FULL. -- _________________________

According to the shop manual the oil capacity (including filter) is 10 U.S. pints for the 260 and 11.4 U.S. pints for the 289 (including the oil cooler). On Tue, 22 Jan 2002 21:48:38 -0800 Steve Laif

Now, if those were British "Pints", you'd find the sump capacity unlimited, as they seem to diminish in volume between the pulling of the draught and the transport to the vehicle. Not much left to p
