My T-bird has now broken it's second dipstick inside the engine. The first time I thought it could be a fluke or a bad dip stick or something, but then it happened at the exact same spot on a second dipstick. I never hear any strange noises from my engine, but I'm guessing that somehow the crank or rods managed to hit the dipstick. Has anyone else had this happen before?
Also Is it dangerous to leave the broken end of the dipstick in the oil pan? I now have two of them in there, but everything still seems fine. I really don't feel like lifting the engine up again to get the oil pan off.
Thirdly, and I know this part should go in the parts wanted section, but does anyone have a dipstick for sale? PM with prices shipped to 44691 Wooster, OH. Thanks.
