Dipstick Tube

Didn't I tell yuh how to do that ? Last week lol ?
Yea, you PM'ed me , I replied - "Quote": ~
"I cut the tube so I could run a bolt down inside of it. That was so I didn't bend the tube with the vise grips and they would stay attached while prying"
I didn't have to use heat, but it finally popped out once I rigged a way to force it straight up.

And I tried that before anything else. That thing was in there and put up a good fight. For a while, I was thinking I would have to drop the oil pan. Glad I didn't
Edit: I used a regular bolt at first. Never dawned on me to use a course lag bolt. And then it took me a while to find one of those. Having moved twice in the last 3 years, I had done some serious downsizing. Found one in a tv wall mount kit that was unused
