I have a 2.0L engine block that has a broken dipstick tube (the tube the dipstick goes into, not the dipstick itself). Is there a way to replace that? Is it just pressed in? Any suggestions?
Thanks, Ken |

I don't know how bad yours is but the tube can also be welded. Of course, it only works on minor damage. I had a tube 50% cut by the engine tin that was welded back nicely.
