I'm ready to pull my engine, but the dipstick refuses to part from the mother ship. The archives refer to a jamb nut, none is present. They also refer to hose clamps, again none is present.

'72-02, nothing else special about it.

Ideas?? I don't want to munge it and have that site be a source of leaks!

Thanks!

John N.

John BMW used 3 systens for the dip sticks 1 used a gland nut on top of a flange, one used a short piece of hose and 2 clamps, the third the tube is a force fit into the block and is not removable normaly. Just wondering why you want it out in the 1st place. Marty.
