Trying to install the new dipstick tube, and this piece of sh** doesn't want to go in. How the hell can I get it to go in?

Try internet search,might some up with install details,hope all is well.
Good thing you caught oil leak and it was'nt worst.
Also looks like your car was salvaged maybe the bolt is from repairs.

make sure u have oil on the oring, and the tube is in the right position, with a good hard push it should go in.

Dumb question, but did you get the rest of the dipstick out of the hole in the oil pan? It's in there a good inch and a half or so. Mine broke when swapping over to turbo. Only way I got the other piece out was taking off the oil pan and using a tool as a punch to push it out from the inside.

Ok guys. I got the dipstick in there. Took me over a hour. The old dipstick came out completely . I just had a hard time installing the new one. Supercharger is back on, then it started raining. Looks like ill be finishing it tomorrow.

Where do all the oil lines go? I checked all the lines, and it all looks good. I personally think the bolt came from a previous repair or something, due to I drove the car over 50 miles, and if I didn't have any oil pressure going to the motor due to that bolt missing, id have a knock, but that wasn't the case.

Car is all put back togather. Ive put over 50 miles on it. And I don't see any oil leaks. I don't know where that banjo bolt came from lol. But I also painted the supercharger. so here is a pic!
