Way, you know what I think about the Craven 2nd Gen... A hooker is a better investment. By the way, I owe you $100..

Very nice, thanks! I was just looking into the hard-to-read dipstick issue after inadvertently letting my oil get perilously low.

Sweet. I went ahead and ordered one as well; I like the extra peace of mind and simplicity of use. Heck, while I was at it I also ordered an NM engine torque arm mount insert! Thanks WMW!

Thanks Mike. For the benefit of others, the o-ring is the wrong size and you can get a free one w/the correct size here http://www.cravenspeed.com/dipstick-o-ring/

We did some test fitting yesterday and found the oring was indeed too small. We have more orings on the way so customers can get a replacement by using this link
http://www.cravenspeed.com/dipstick-o-ring/

Or once we have the orings we will be contacting each R56 dipstick purchaser to get them a replacement.

In the meantime if you want to use your new Craven dipstick you can remove the stock oring from the stock dipstick and put it on your Craven dipstick.

The Oring problem is ONLY with the R55,R56,R57,R58,R59,R60 Dipsticks.
