moodoo Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Folks.. From the 'silly little parts that are still important department'... Am midway through my 2.2 CIH, and now turns out I'm missing the tube that presses into the block that the dipstick tube slides into. Anyone have one lying around, or a scrap engine they could knock one out of? It will knock out of the block using a punch or even a bolt I'm told. I'm in Ireland, so postage will be required...thanks. Fin
Roy Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 I also need one after Fin if anyone has one? For my 2.4, My old engine was stolen by the traveller types when scrap was high Im currently running with no dipstick at all and have to drop the oil to check it! Please PM me....
OPEL PARTS GREECE Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Do you know the length? TUBE ROD OIL LEVER INDICATOR 17CM (3,5CM)13MM or TUBE ROD OIL LEVER INDICATOR 25CM (3,5CM)13MM Available both types...send pm for details
moodoo Posted July 11, 2014 Author Posted July 11, 2014 I have no idea which length...engine block and sump were originally 1.9, but engine is being rebuilt as 2.2, if thats any help....

moodoo Posted July 22, 2014 Author Posted July 22, 2014 Anybody have an old engine lying around that they could take the tube out of...??
toj28 Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 I have a manta gt 1.8 engine or ive 4 c20xe engines if there any good
Mototechnics Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 I've got an '87 Exclusive 2.0l engine (done 108K) about to go to the metal dealers will see it I can get it off without damaging it too much. Won't be able to do it until Friday 1st August though.
moodoo Posted July 31, 2014 Author Posted July 31, 2014 If you could, that would be great! Apparently it should knock out with a punch (or an old socket) from the top side. Haven't ever actually tried though... Let me know how you get on...thanks for the offer.
611 Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Hey Fin If you dont have any luck with getting one try Alf on here as he took his old engine out and replaced it with the one i had an i cant remember if it had the dipstick tube in or not. so he might have one from the old engine? worth a try? Andy
