My oil dipstick o-ring isn't wide enough to mate with the side of the metal tube. I have tried 2 others both are the same. Any ideas? Will this cause any problems with the car?

There would definitely be the ability for air/gasses to pass by it. Edited 29/12/12 03:23 AM by NickBA-XR6T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
