ABSTRACT:
A dipstick guide to aid in the insertion of a dipstick into a dipstick tube when measuring the level of oil in the engine or replacing the dipstick in the dipstick tube comprising an upper frusto-conical body whose side converges into one end of a smaller central body or tube portion, the other end of which then diverges into a lower body or frusto-conical skirt, smaller than the upper body, the two opposed frusto-conical bodies having sides which diverge in opposite directions from each other, and a slot extending axially along the length of the guide from one end to the other to allow removal of the guide, sidewise, when the dipstick has been partially inserted into the dipstick tube. An upstanding handle on the upper body facilitates the positioning of the dipstick guide onto the dipstick tube, and allows for the dipstick guide to be manually removed from the dipstick tube, and then moved out of the way of the dipstick.
