What the heck! I seem to have lost the dipstick for our Albin-25!

Post by **NickScheuer** » Sat Sep 21, 2019 5:10 pm

Getting ready to pump out the crankcase oil so I can pull the transmission and the dipstick is GONE! Hey, I don't think the Volvo-Penta MD17C swallowed it! It must'a been there when I poured in the current oil so I'd know when to quit.

Anybody got one from a motor you're parting out?

Hope I'm not breaking any forum rules, but the "swap & trade" section seems devoted to complete boats.

I think WillieC would be your go-to guy on all things MD17C.

Found a dip stick on ebay for $19. The original will probably turn up eventually, but hey, one can't have too many dip sticks, eh?

My ex probably thinks I'm a dipstick!

Evidently, it's easier to find a dipstick for an MD17C than a 1985 Ferrari Mondial Quattrovalvole Cabriolet. But for a coupe? They're "only" $50.

And, no, they're not the same. Don't ask me how I know.

Anyone wanna buy a $50 Ferrari dipstick?
