Is a 914/6 oil tank dipstick longer than a 911 tank dipstick? Mine seems short.

I got one of theirs but it didn’t fit right. Couldn’t screw on the cap. Broke it trying to modify it.

Yikes.

A kind member is offering me one from his stash so looks like I’m covered. Thanks again!

So the length of my dipstick is stock but does this look right to you?

The neck was turned about 30 degrees which I believe made the dipstick stick seem off. PMS said there’s a mesh and hole the tube should go through when installed right. Didn’t see anything in there. Also wonder if the neck is on there far enough.
