I can check my oil regularly again.
One litte push back on the dipstick tube and my dipstick slides in and out easily.
Reps given thank you Robin!

Thanks for the rep.

Ive only been checking my oil when its really bothering me.............................. as compared to every fillup before the dipstick messed up.
Now i think of it , I think its been that way ever since I changed my HPOP.

I know this isnt the right forum to ask this but its on the same subject so someone may know?
Are E-350 cube vans the same to fix the dipstick?
Im looking at buying a 95 and the guy told me he jb welded around it to try and stop the leak but it still leaks.
So anyone know if its harder or easier to do a van?

The flange is the same on the E350.
Guzzle offers a kit to fix the flange leak. Dieselorings Flange Kit

That's a pile of crap... as these guys said, it can be done with ONLY removing the starter. I did it in mine thinking it was the source of the leak but it's actually just the oil pan seal oozing a little. Kinda frustrating, but not bad enough to even consider pulling the motor over!
