Twist it up and out with a properly sized e-z out. Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com] On Behalf Of Robert Keezer Sent: Tuesday, March 14, 2006 8:37 PM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Chunka Bologna Ok so I'm putting a 1.9 back together after asking around and reading anything else to look at before putting the case together and it looks Like I get to be the one who has the future advice. Where in anyone's instructions is the topic of broken off dipstick tube in case discussed? I have'nt found it- because that's what I discovered after its all sealed up- there's about an inch or so of tube in the dipstick hole, as I remember seeing broken dipstick tube in the box (This was a basket case) with brazing on the end.
So it had broken, and the PO brazed it. I have a good replacement tube. How do you remove the broken part still in the case. there's about 1/4 inch above the case. Can it be driven down and out- I still can retrieve it as the cylinders are'nt in yet. I'll be relieved to know I can just drive it out thru the bottom.
