Default Dropped a piece of plastic down the dip stick tube

As subject really.

I tried wedging it out with a flat blade but that pushed it further out
of
view!

Any ideas on how to get it out ?


Shove it in. It'll get chewed up and spat out.




Hi Conor,

Are you serious ?

Should I just leave it and hope its ends up in the sump ? and get an oil
change in a week ?

My dad said its not worth worrying this much about and that it won't get
past the oil pick up ? which protects against foreign ovject getting in the
way.

Feel a bit of a tit for not covering the dipstick hole.
