The dip stick tube in my 740 Turbo is bent. Is this something that I can replace without too much fuss? Thanks for any information.

    I've never had to change a dipstick tube but I'd imagine it would go something like this--the tube will need to be clamped so as to not damage it--clamped with a handle that extends out from the tube--space has to be found under the handle to allow for a hammer to tap upward--or to be driven from below. If you live near me (Long Island) you can rake the one in my recently retired 245. -- Dave
