BWR SC dipstick Tube problem need help....

I just got my BWR installed.

Today, when I tried to check my engine oil, i pulled the dip stick, the tube came off with it loose.

Seems the installer didnt tight the tube good enough.

Can anyone provide a pic with the good dipstick tube installation please?

Luke

I do not have a picture but if you review the install pictures there is a u bend clamp that attaches to the dipstick to the coolant housing to keep it secured. By the way my kit, installed 1 week ago, did not come with this clamp I got it at advance auto for like $1. I will see if I can get a picture in the next 20 min. Tommy

Hey s4 see if this picture helps. You will probably not be able to see the housing due to the fact the s/c is installed but this is where it is supposed to be. Well the picture size is too large in memory if you pm me you e mail I will send the picture to you.
