    I just bought a workshop dipstick, the one with the chain on it. It lives in the garage, no problem as I'm only ever going to check the oil once in a while, probably when I fill the squirters.

    Just my way on doing it....

    Bought my dipstick a few weeks back and have not had any problems. There's probably congealed oil in the pipe so will need a good push to get it to seat properly.
