## ⚙️ Key Features

-   0.052 kg
-   Listed for 11 applications across TAD, TWD and TD series engines
-   Supersedes 478624
-   The marks are calibrated to the sump it is listed against

## 🔌 Function

Reaches into the sump so the oil level can be read against marks set for that engine's oil capacity.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Level reading differently on two consecutive checks with no oil used
-   Marks worn, polished or corroded until they cannot be read
-   Stick bent or kinked so it fouls the tube going in
-   Handle or seal missing, letting oil mist out of the tube
-   Blade tip broken off, leaving part of it in the sump

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Dipstick length is calibrated to the sump, so do not substitute one from another engine - a stick that reads a little high will run the engine short of oil
-   Check the tube grommet and the top seal at the same time, since a leaking tube mists oil over the engine
