Ah the increased oil capacity issue?

I can measure mine at the weekend for you, i tried in vain to find a new dipstick but could find no direct replacement and everything else was either too wide to fit the guide tube or too short so i bought one with the correct size handle, cut it open and bonded it to my existing stick.

On mine the rubber top has disintegrated and the bung slides up and down. I can make a top, but need to know the correct length, though I can guage that pretty well anyway.

Measurements would be useful. Is yours pre or post mod?
