: Could somebody please tell me what the distence is from the flange on the dip stick to the full mark is on a 998cc BMC moter. The dip stick that i have hits the bottom of the sump and is not the right one so i do not know if my oil level is correct

Hi Bob,
A day late and a dollar short I am. Just been to busy working on Turners to read the board.
The easy answer is to drain the oil. Add 4 quarts and let it sit for an hour. Insert dip stick. Remove dip stick. See where the oil comes up on the dip stick. Make a new mark on dip stick. Your done.
