Hello,

I have been away for too long, anyhow I noticed a puddle of oil under car, pulled dip stick out put it back in , pulled it out and the last part of the Stick was gone. must have been 50 years of metal fatigue. Question is whats it going to take to get it out of the tank?

it is a /6 tank

Doesn’t the factory tank have a brazed in screen about halfway down the tank? I thought I remember this ring the case. If so it shouldn’t makes it’s way to the filter console or pick up. Just remember the screen is there if fishing with a magnet. You don’t want to push that magnet and break the screen. Again, if I’m remembering correctly the screen seemed fragile.
