ABSTRACT:
A cap assembly, having a fixedly attached dipstick, for a fill and/or guide tube is provided. The cap provides a fluid tight seal on the end of the tube, thereby preventing fluid leakage. The cap can be used on both linear and non-linear tubes because it requires about 45.degree. or less rotation to lock. The cap assembly comprises a housing for attachment on the open end of the tube. The housing is equipped with protruding lugs that interlock with grooves on the cap to form a fluid tight seal.
